In January 2018, the Ghana midfielder penned a five-year deal to remain at the Wanda Metropolitano Stadium until 2023. 

Since he made his first-team debut back in 2015, Partey has established himself in Diego Simeone's team as a key player.

The 26-year-old has scored two goals in nine matches this season.
