Arsenal set to bid £20m plus £3m in add-ons for Brentford goalkeeper David Raya with the offer expected to be rejected immediately as the Bees continue to hold out for £40m

Arsenal have offered £20million plus £3m in add ons for Brentford goalkeeper David Raya. The bid is expected to be rejected.

It comes after the Spaniard agreed personal terms with the Gunners, according to transfer guru Fabrizio Romano.

He tweeted: 'Understand David Raya has reached an agreement in principle with Arsenal on personal terms.

'Brentford have been informed by player side that he wants to join Arsenal — and talks between clubs over formula/price are now expected to accelerate.'

Arsenal want to sign Raya as back-up for Aaron Ramsdale.
