Laia recently accepted an interview with the media and talked about the competition for Arsenal goalkeeper position.
Arsenal signed Kepa from Chelsea for £5 million earlier this month, but when asked whether Arteta promised his main position, Raya said: "No, Kepa is just joining as a new teammate to add manpower to the goalkeeper group. The coach said nothing, let's wait and see."
Kepa has played for Real Madrid and Bournemouth on loan in the past two seasons, and this time Arsenal has activated the termination clause in its contract. When asked whether the most expensive goalkeepers in the world brought pressure to join, Raya responded: "No, I think this is a healthy competition. We are friends, we used to work with the national team, and now we have a good relationship here. We can be said to be a healthy partner in the goalkeeper position. We all know how difficult it is for the goalkeeper, and in the end only one person can play, it depends on the coach's decision."
