Former Dutch international with Ghanaian descent, George Boateng hs urged Thomas Partey to snub Arsenal for Manchester United.
The 27-year-old is yet to make a decision on his future at the end of the season.
Partey, who has been a key player for Atletico Madrid in the Spanish La Liga is being chased by top European clubs this summer.
With Arsenal likely to be his next destination, Boateng, who is Aston Villa U-18 coach beleives the playing style of Manchester United will suit Partey.
“If we look at Man United’s situation that is even more suitable," he told Citi TV.
“Pogba in a three-man midfield is a much better player as the 8 and Fernandes operating as the 10.
“Can they have someone like Thomas Partey to control and lead the midfield to allow Pogba and Fernandes to move forward, I think Man United will start playing to win the league,” the former Hull City and Middlesbrough star added.
Inter Milan, PSG and Napoli are all interested in the services of Partey this summer.
