Sports journalist Steve Kay has provided fresh update on Arsenal's pursuit of David Raya.
Gunners have already secured the signatures of Declan Rice, Kai Havertz, and Jurrien Timber for a total of around £200m during this summer transfer window. The club have now shown their interest in David Raya, the Spanish goalkeeper from Brentford.
According to Kay, Raya has expressed his desire to join Arsenal. The news has left the journalist astonished, and he describes the player as a 'world class' goalkeeper.
“I said a little while ago that nothing would surprise me in this window, but this is the one that was on my mind when I said that a few minutes ago. It’s absolutely amazing,” he said speaking on KS1 TV, via TBR Football.
“Personal terms are agreed. The player has told Brentford he wants to come to Arsenal. Arsenal and Brentford are now in conversation over signing David Raya. Absolutely mind blown. It looks like if Arsenal can agree a fee with Brentford which is between £30m and £40m, David Raya is an Arsenal player.”
