Arsenal: David Raya reportedly finalises improved deal with Gunners

Arsenal goalkeeper David Raya has agreed to an improved contract with the club, according to a report from BBC Sport.

Raya joined Arsenal on a permanent deal in July last year after spending the 2023-24 season on loan from Brentford.

His deal with the Gunners does not expire until the end of the 2027-28 season.

It is understood that the length of the deal has not been extended. However, Raya is said to have received an increase on a reported weekly salary of £100,000.

The improved contract is thought to have been agreed in the summer but is yet to be officially announced by Arsenal, who reportedly came to terms on a similar arrangement with Leandro Trossard without formally announcing it.

Raya has made 105 appearances for Arsenal since making his initial loan move from Brentford.

The Spain international has 45 clean sheets for the Gunners and has won the Golden Glove award for the most Premier League clean sheets in each of the last two seasons, sharing the honour with Matz Sels of Nottingham Forest in the previous campaign.
