Brentford have officially announced the signing of goalkeeper Mark Frecken from Freiburg for €13 million on a four-year contract.

This means that this deal could be an indirect indication that they are quite ready to let Raya leave the team this summer, with Frecken as his successor.
“I’m very excited,” said Flekken. “If you had told me seven years ago when I was in the third division of Germany that one day I would be playing in the Premier League, I would have probably knocked you down!
“But it’s a dream come true and my next big step. And I hope we can take the next steps as a squad and as a club as well.
“I’m a ball-playing goalkeeper. I try to bring calmness into the squad and I’ll always try to direct the guys in front of me – I’ll help them to help me.”
Raya is currently receiving interest from many clubs. But the heavy news is that both Chelsea and Manchester United seem to be looking for alternatives in the goalkeeper position.
