Tottenham Hotspur are said to be preparing a substantial pay rise offer to entice Brentford goalkeeper David Raya, according to reports by Wayne Veysey.
There are multiple unresolved issues for Daniel Levy to adhere to the plan for the next season, and the summit of it is a permanent gaffer and a sporting director. Although the departure of the skipper and long-serving gloves between the woodworks Hugo Lloris means – a new goalie is also needed. Spurs are linked with multiple faces and Brentford’s David Raya is also reported to be one of them…
Tottenham are said to be making preparations to extend a substantial financial proposal to David Raya in order to entice him to join the club, with chairman Daniel Levy spearheading the efforts.
As per Veysey’s report, Tottenham have expressed their willingness to increase Raya’s current salary at Brentford by threefold, with a proposed offer of approximately £100,000 per week. Levy & Tottenham are said to regard Raya as a prospective heir to Hugo Lloris and has diligently observed his on-field displays over the course of the season.
It is anticipated that David Raya, a crucial component of Brentford’s team, will depart from the organisation during the upcoming summer window. The task of retaining the services of Brentford’s star custodian poses a challenge for manager Thomas Frank, in light of Tottenham’s interest and their attractive offer. The recruitment personnel of Spurs have been closely monitoring the performances of Raya, which suggests their keen interest in acquiring his services. It is possible that Brentford could request a transfer fee of approximately £40 million for Raya.
David Raya has maintained a consistent presence on the Brentford team, having played more minutes in league matches than any other member of the squad. The 27-year-old has demonstrated his goalkeeping prowess by consistently being ranked among the top performers per 90 minutes for Brentford. Raya has attracted attention for his skills and abilities, having been regarded as a “top-class” player by Michael Owen and praised by Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp for his exceptional distribution.
Speaking about Raya following an encounter with Brentford in 2021 – Klopp said: “The goalkeeper could have the shirt with No 10. He played a few incredible balls but it was the right thing to do against us today.”
