Chelsea are one of a number of Premier League clubs monitoring Brentford star David Raya who could soon depart the Bees with his contract up in 2024. Raya has already rejected two new contract offers from his current club and has previously hinted at his desire to play European football.
The 27-year-old has been one Brentford's best performers this season making a number of crucial saves to help Thomas Frank's side consistently remain in the top half of the Premier League table. On Saturday, Raya made six saves to help the Bees secure an unlikely point at Emirates Stadium against league leaders Arsenal.
Raya has not been shy to engage in talk surrounding his contract situation in west London, with Chelsea joined by Tottenham and Manchester United in targeting Raya, according to The Telegraph. "I don't think it's the right time to sign a contract at the moment," Raya said. "I'm really, really happy and right now, I'm just thinking about doing the best for the team and trying to push for Europe.
