The Former Wolfsburg Captain wants Partey to prioritize Champions League football; “I wouldn’t want Thomas Partey to move to Arsenal in England because with Athletico Madrid he will always play in the UEFA Champions League, It will be difficult for Arsenal to qualify for the Champions League” Akonnor said.
The former captain of Ghana Charles Kwabla Akonnorplayed his football in Germany and had coaching stints at Ghanaian clubs Asante Kotoko and Ashgold before his appointment with the National team.
Atletico Madrid star Thomas Partey is seeking an annual salary of £10.4million-a-year in order to join Arsenal this summer.
The Ghanian midfielder is keen on a move to the Emirates but the Gunners are unwilling to activate a €50m (£45m) release clause in the 27-year-old’s contract.
