Raya in line for a run in the first-team.<\/p>\n<p><span>Mail Sport<\/span> understands Gunners head coach Mikel Arteta is giving serious consideration to giving Raya, a loan arrival from Brentford, a prolonged first-team opportunity in the coming weeks.<\/p>\n<p>Ramsdale has established himself as the Gunners&#8217; No 1 since his arrival from Sheffield United in 2021 and is widely viewed as first-choice back-up to England&#8217;s starting goalkeeper Jordan Pickford.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>He was named in the PFA team of the year last season.<\/p>\n<p>However, there is a growing feeling at the Emirates that Arteta wants to give Raya an opportunity to stake his claim for a regular starting role in the team.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\"

afforded a prolonged opportunity<\/p>\n<p>Your browser does not support iframes.<\/p>\n<p>It remains to be seen when Arteta decides to make a change in goal, but Raya is said to have deeply impressed in training since his arrival, particularly with his ability to accurately play out from defence.<\/p>\n<p>If he doesn&#8217;t play before, Raya&#8217;s first opportunity could arrive in the Carabao Cup, against his former club Brentford on September 27.<\/p>\n<p>Premier League regulations would usually prohibit Raya from playing versus Thomas Frank&#8217;s team &#8211; but in the Carabao Cup loan players can play against their parent club provided they get permission.<\/p>\n<p>Brentford, it is understood, are unlikely to oppose Raya&#8217;s inclusion.<\/p>\n<p>But Raya is also now expected to have the chance to play himself into the Premier League team as Ramsdale sweats on his role as the club&#8217;s No 1.<\/p>\n<p>Arsenal signed Spain keeper Raya on a season-long loan with the potential for a permanent deal.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\"
