United or Chelsea could go for him if they can't get Onana/Costa/Maignan done. We're shopping in the pool below that, and if we can't get Raya done we'll be shopping in a pool further down again. That's fine if you have smarts like Brighton or Brentford who've just signed Flekken, but we don't. I think this is probably a negotiating tactic though.. he's still probably our #1 target and we're hoping to get it done for 30mRaya will get done.
Brentford aren't getting 40m from anyone and theyre not going to want to see him go on a free.
