Former Birmingham City goalkeeper Richard Kingson believes that Atletico Madrid star Thomas Partey should take the next step with a move to the Premier League.

Partey, 26, has been heavily linked with Premier League giants Arsenal in recent weeks after reportedly refusing to extend his contract with Diego Simeone’s side.

In an exclusive interview on the Joy Sports Link, Kingson noted that the former Almeria loanee has already made his name in Spain and a Premier League move should be the next step on his mind.

Of course [Partey can go to England]. In football, it is a season," he told Nathaniel Attoh.

"He has already made his name there [in Spain]. He also needs to go to the toughest league to play. Partey is young. Partey is now coming up so I think going to England is a plus. He has to go,” he concluded.

Thomas has made 25 La Liga appearances this season and scored two goals.
