Atletico Madrid want to sign Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain in swap deal for Thomas Partey

Atletico Madrid have offered Liverpool the chance to sign reported Arsenal target Thomas Partey this summer, should they allow Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain move in the opposite direction in a straight-swap deal, The Sun reports.

Partey, 26, currently has three more years remaining on his contract but his future remains uncertain owing to the £45m buy-out clause, which has caught the eye of top European sides including Mikel Arteta’s Arsenal.

While Partey has the preference to join the north London club, it is suggested that they may not afford to trigger his release clause due to the financial impact of the coronavirus pandemic.
