Huh okay. I guess the interest was genuine then.

Yeah, I was surprised by this too. I know our goalkeeping coach came from Brentford and is a massive fan of Raya, and we were sounding out a move for him a couple of seasons ago. And he definitely looks like a solid keeper.

But I thought we were all set with Ramsdale as #1 and Turner as his backup. But given some of his stats and recent performances, I can see why the coaching staff feel like Ramsdale needs more viable competition.
