Atletico Madrid midfielder Thomas Partey has eased talk of interest from Real Madrid.

Thomas is being linked with Real as an alternative to top target Manchester United ace Paul Pogba.

However, Thomas is adamant he is happy where he is.

He told Mundo Deportivo: "I grew up at Atlético de Madrid and I'm sure I'll stay here.

"I do not know where I could be better than here. I will stay at Atlético as long as they want me to stay."
