Chelsea and Tottenham have been handed huge boosts to their hopes of signing David Raya following Brentford's latest activity in the transfer market. The 27-year-old goalkeeper faces an increasingly uncertain future at the Gtech Community Stadium, with his contract set to expire at the end of next season.
Raya, who has already turned down two contract offers from the Bees, has featured 35 times for Thomas Frank's side in the Premier League this term, keeping 11 clean sheets. The Spain international's impressive performances have reportedly caught the attention of several top clubs in Europe, and Brentford appear to be preparing for his exit.
According to German publication Bild, the west Londoners are in 'advanced talks' to sign Mark Flekken from SC Freiburg. The report states that the negotiations are in the final stage and the Bees will activate his €13million (£11.3m) release clause once an agreement on personal terms has been reached.
