I think the common thought is Brentford thought there'd be more of a bidding war for Raya, which is why they 'stuck' to their 40m price tag with us.Why are Brentford helping Arsenal out? Have I missed something?
But then no-one else came in and we went for Vicario.
Bayern came in but didn't wanna pay 40m and essentially no-one got close to their price at all. And with Brentford already signing Raya's replacement they'd kinda played themselves.
So Arsenal have come in and taken advantage. Think it works out to a 3mil loan with an option to buy for 27mil next season so 30mil in total, so Brentford get some money from deffo not their best bit of business.
