it appears that Arsenal is set to sign David Raya on a permanent deal, not a loan deal. The 28-year-old goalkeeper has impressed Arsenal fans, the board, and management.
Arsenal has activated their option to buy David Raya from Brentford for £27 million, following a successful loan spell which included the goalkeeper winning the Premier League golden glove award ..Raya moved to Arsenal from Brentford earlier in the summer transfer window on an initial season-long loan due to Financial Fair Play (FFP) concerns. He has since displaced Aaron Ramsdale from his spot as Mikel Arteta’s first-choice goalkeeper
Despite some uncertainty, it is reported that Arsenal is guaranteed to sign Raya on a permanent basis, and he is expected to be the main contender for Aaron Ramsdale’s No. 1 spot. Mikel Arteta, the Arsenal manager, has been supportive of Raya’s role in the team, as he has established himself as the first-choice goalkeeper, dislodging Aaron Ramsdale
There have been questions over the selection of Raya by many fans, but Arteta’s choice is based on Raya’s distribution and how he fits into the style of play that Arteta wants for the team. It seems that the decision to sign David Raya on a permanent deal has been made, and he is expected to continue as Arsenal’s first-choice goalkeeper.
