Potential new signing nods to Emirates, Arsenal starts finalizing the deal

According to Metro, the London-based Gunners will soon be looking to complete the David Raya transfer this summer.

Arsenal has been linked with a surprising breakthrough deal to bring in the Spanish goalkeeper. Manager Mikel Arteta wants to ensure high-quality competition for Aaron Ramsdale in the goal.

Raya, who has only one year left on his contract, has attracted interest from several clubs this summer. Tottenham and Bayern Munich have both made offers.

Conversely, the opportunity is opening up for Arsenal. According to Fabrizio Romano, Raya wants to join the Emirates Stadium during this summer, and Arsenal has already taken action.

Metro confirms that the Gunners are keen to agree on personal terms and a salary package with Raya before advancing negotiations with Brentford.

At this moment, Arsenal appears to be in an extremely favorable position to secure Raya. The transfer fee of £40 million may not be an issue.
