Ghana midfielder Thomas Partey has been named as one of Atletico Madrid starters.
Partey who has shown commitment and determination in the team's pre-season has been rewarded by coach Diego Simeone.
What this means is that Partey will feature in more games for the Madrid side in next season's Spanish La Liga as well as the UEFA Champions League.
Last summer clubs like Leicester City and West Brom all in England showed interest in picking up the player but after the Africa Cup of Nations the club made a decision to keep him.
