Partey opens up on deadline day saga

Thomas Partey has talked about the tumultuous situation he went through on deadline day.

‘I was not thinking of anything, I was OK I was talking to a friend that I train with to go and train in the morning and then my agent called me,’ he told Sky Sports.

‘He said “no, we have to go to this place to sign this paper” in case we have to sign some papers for you and you are not there, we will sign for you.

‘So in the morning we went there, we did that. Since we went out from the morning we could not come back home.’

He added: ‘We went to a restaurant to eat and the chef was like “don’t leave us today”, I was like “what do you mean?”

‘He was like “today is the deadline day, do not leave us today”.

‘And I think my agent knew something about that and was like “nothing will happen don’t worry”.

‘So we went to sign the papers, we went to eat and I think they talked to Edu (Gaspar), and Edu said “no, we have to do this today”.

‘I was like “how are we going to do this today?” And we had to go now, now, now to do medical and that’s how everything happened.’
