Sky Sports reporter expecting Arsenal to complete £67 million done deal
It is probably not surprising that Arsenal will sign David Raya permanently at the end of the season.
The Gunners agreed a loan deal with Brentford to bring the Spanish goalkeeper to the Emirates this summer, but after successfully negotiating a £27 million purchase option on the goalkeeper’s transfer, the London giants will soon have the opportunity to make the 28-year-old goalkeeper’s move permanent.
According to Dharmesh Sheth of Sky Sports, Mikel Arteta intends to do just that.
“If you look at Arsenal’s last deal in the summer transfer window, they bought David Ray. I say they bought David Ray because they actually brought him in as a loan player with an option to buy for £27 million,” he told GiveMeSport.
“We expect the deal to happen but the money will be spent in the summer as part of next year’s budget rather than this year’s because clubs seem to be limited by FFP at the moment.”
