32 days to the new Premier League season and a fun fact about Davis Raya

As the countdown to the new Premier League season ticks down, with just 32 days left until the action kicks off, one of the standout performers from Arsenal’s previous campaign was goalkeeper David Raya.

The 28-year-old Spaniard joined the Gunners last summer, and in his debut season at the Emirates, he made a remarkable impact, playing a pivotal role in the club’s impressive run to a second-place finish.

In the 32 Premier League games Raya featured in for Arsenal, he managed to keep a clean sheet on an astounding 16 occasions. This remarkable statistic means that Raya boasts the best clean sheet percentage of any Arsenal goalkeeper to have played more than one game in the top flight.

Raya’s performances between the sticks were a crucial factor in Arsenal’s push for the title, with the Gunners narrowly missing out on the league crown to Manchester City. The Spaniard’s ability to organize the defense, make crucial saves, and command his area with authority quickly made him a fan favorite at the Emirates.

As the new season approaches, Arsenal fans will be eager to see if Raya can build on his impressive debut campaign and continue to be a rock-solid presence in goal. With the Premier League and Champions League challenges ahead, the 32-year-old will undoubtedly play a pivotal role in the club’s quest for silverware.

With just 32 days remaining until the 2024/25 season kicks off, the anticipation around Arsenal’s squad and their ambitions for the new campaign is palpable. And if David Raya can replicate his stunning form from last season, the Gunners will be well-placed to mount a serious challenge on multiple fronts.
