Arsenal sign Spanish goalkeeper on season long loan

Arsenal have signed goalkeeper David Raya on a season-long loan from Brentford.

The Gunners have the option to make the move for the 27 year old Spaniard permanent.

Raya will compete with England keeper Aaron Ramsdale for the Number 1 spot.

Raya joined Blackburn as a 16-year-old in July 2012 where he went on to make 108 appearances in all competitions.

He signed for Brentford in July 2018 for a fee in the region of £3m and was a key part of the Bees side which won promotion to the Premier League in 2021.

He kept 11 Premier League clean sheets last season as the Bees finished ninth.
