David Raya hints at exit amid Manchester United, Tottenham, Chelsea talk?

sportsmole.co.uk, 19 April 2023, 22:34
David Raya has hinted that he could leave Brentford this summer amid links with Manchester United, Tottenham Hotspur and Chelsea.

The Spanish goalkeeper is out of contract until the summer of 2024, and he is reportedly reluctant to sign an extension.

Raya has turned down two new contract offers from the West London club, as he looks to fulfil his dream of playing European football.

With Raya set to enter the final 12 months of his deal, Brentford may decide to sanction a summer sale rather than let the goalkeeper leave for free in 2024.

Man United have been omitted as a potential destination with uncertainty surrounding their goalkeeping department.

Their number one stopper David de Gea is close to agreeing a new contract with his current deal set to expire in June, but Tom Heaton, Dean Henderson and Crystal Palace loanee Jack Butland are all expected to leave.

Raya is also attracting interest from Tottenham, who are looking to sign a new long-term successor to Hugo Lloris.

Chelsea, meanwhile, are expected to offload either Edouard Mendy or Kepa Arrizabalaga as they search for a new number one goalkeeper.

With at least three top Premier League sides considering a summer move, Raya has admitted that every player wants to represent the "biggest" clubs.

Speaking on the Yours, Mine, Away! podcast, Raya said: "Obviously it's nice to hear that clubs are after you and asking about you and looking for you.

"These clubs are the biggest in the world and every player wants to play for these clubs and everything.

"I have a year left and I don't know what will happen in the summer. I've said before that I've had two contracts that I've turned down because they weren't the offers I was looking for.

"I want to push myself to the highest level to the Champions League, the Europa League and to win those trophies. I want to experience that and I'm at that stage in my footballing career."

A recent report claimed that Brentford are hoping to receive offers in the region of £35m for the Spain international.

Raya, who has been with the Bees since 2019, has kept nine clean sheets in 31 Premier League games this season.
