Arsenal goalkeeper David Raya is now just one clean sheet away from equaling the club’s all time Premier League record for most shutouts in a single season, according to reports from ESPN on Friday.
The Spanish international has been a central figure in Arsenal’s title challenge under Mikel Arteta, combining composure, elite distribution, and crucial saves to help deliver one of the strongest defensive records in England.
Raya’s next clean sheet would see him match the record jointly held by club legends David Seaman and Petr Čech, a remarkable achievement considering the scrutiny surrounding his arrival at the club earlier in the season.
Initially brought in amid heavy debate over Arsenal’s goalkeeping situation, Raya faced constant comparisons with Aaron Ramsdale.
However, the 29-year-old has responded emphatically, producing a string of commanding performances in crucial matches as Arsenal continue their push for major honours.
