Spanish giants, Atletico Madrid is continuously keeping tabs on RCD Mallorca midfielder Baba Idrussu with the belief that he will be the perfect replacement for Thomas Partey when he leaves.
With the summer transfer window just around the corner, growing speculations have indicated that Thomas Partey is English Premier League-bound and will likely sign for Arsenal.
Preparing for life without the hardworking midfielder, the Rojiblancos have identified his compatriot Baba Iddrisu as a player with similar qualities, capable of filling his shoes.
As reported by footballghana.com earlier, Atletico Madrid has already been keeping tabs on the RCD Mallorca midfielder and continues to do so.
The Spanish La Liga side knows there is the possibility of losing Thomas Partey in the upcoming transfer window and do not want to be found wanting when that happens.
This season, Baba Idrissu has made 31 appearances for his club where he is regarded as an asset. His numbers this season are very good and could take a step forward in his career this summer if his countryman, Thomas Partey does the same.
