The versatile Ghana midfielder has made 21 appearances for Atletico this season but, after the 1-0 victory over Espanyol on Saturday, he hinted he is unsatisfied with his game time.
"Sometimes I feel unhappy at Atletico. You have to play in the important games to feel happy, to feel stronger and more confident," Thomas told Gol.
However, the 25-year-old took to social media to insist his remarks have been misconstrued and he is content in Diego Simeone's side.
"On Saturday after the game I made some comments that haven't been taken as they were meant to be understood and I would like to explain myself more clearly," Thomas wrote on Instagram.
"Atleti is the club where I want to be and where I would like to continue to grow as a player, because of the club and because of the fans.
"And it is true that I feel I can still be even more important and that's why I work hard every day.
"I don't want to settle for less and that is good for me to be the best player I can be."
