Reading FC defender Andy Yiadom says Thomas Teye Partey will be the difference for the English Premier League outfit, Arsenal following his mouthwatering move.
Thomas Partey sealed his move to the English Premier League side before the transfer deadline.
This was after the Gunners invoked an automatic transfer by paying the full buyout clause of £45m for Spanish side Atletico Madrid.
The 27-year-old has signed a five-year contract to end months of speculation over the move with an option to extend for another year.
“It’s all a bit surreal. It’s just a little bit crazy for me that he’s going to the club I’ve supported since I was young.
“I’m really excited that they have signed him. I think he’s a great addition and will make a big difference for Arsenal.
“He’s in his prime and is a fantastic player and I know that he will go there and do extremely well.”
“Obviously it’s great that he’s in the Premier League as well because it’s a completely different dynamic for him. It’s one of the best leagues in the world and I think everybody wants to come and play here.
“I think he has all the attributes to do well in the Premier League, but also I think what people have to remember is it is the Premier League and he’s been playing in Spain for a long time” he said.
