However, it’s worth noting that The Reds are also keeping Dean Henderson as a potential option for the later stages of the transfer window. While the immediate focus is on finalizing the deal for Matt Turner, Forest is keeping their options open and may consider pursuing Henderson in the final weeks of the transfer window if necessary.
The pursuit of Matt Turner showcases Nottingham Forest’s commitment to strengthening their squad and addressing their goalkeeping needs. As discussions with Arsenal continue to advance, fans eagerly await updates on the potential transfer. Turner’s addition to the team could significantly bolster Forest’s defensive capabilities and add depth to their goalkeeping department.
I think the Raya move might be market opportunity on Arsenal’s part but also think there’s at least a chance that Matt Turner has asked to leave and they actually need another GK.

The USMNT international’s departure will clear the way for the arrival of Brentford’s David Raya, a player who has been admired by the Gunners for a long time.
If Arsenal get a good fee for Turner, adding just a few more pounds to get a keeper of Raya’s caliber will turn out to be an exceptional piece of business.

Reports are that both parties are please with progress made.
Unconfirmed reports are that Brentford is prepared to accept less than £ 30 mill for Raya.
Latest information comming from italy is : Arsenal to bid £30 million for Inter’s Lautaro Martinez but Inter values Martinez at £40 million .Martinez thinks Inter has over priced him! Arsenal will accept a cash payment of £30 milion with the inclusion of Martinez from Inter in a swap deal for the younger Balogun who Arsenal now value at £60 million. Negotiations are on going as inter is considering Arsenals generous offer.
I hope the price is true. Utd got mugged for their striker, who had less goals than Balogun. We should hold firm and not bend on our price.
Inter can have Nketiah for the 30-35 million offer, but far too low if they want Balogun.
