Raya eyes history as Golden Glove streak looms

David Raya is on course for Premier League history, according to Fabrizio Romano. The journalist notes that no goalkeeper in the competition’s history has ever won the Golden Glove four seasons in a row, with Raya currently in the running to achieve it.

Beyond that milestone, Romano also points to another strong stat: Raya has reached 71 Premier League clean sheets across his career. With those numbers piling up, attention isn’t just domestic either—he’s also been nominated for the Ballon d’Or among the best goalkeepers.

Arsenal and the award talk

Inside the club, the appraisal isn’t only about stats. Mikel Arteta is quoted praising Raya’s influence, saying: “He’s been a tremendous signing for us. The quality and mentality is something incredible,” as Fabrizio Romano reports.

Why it matters

If Raya manages a fourth straight Golden Glove, it wouldn’t just be another personal accolade—it would place him in a completely unique spot in Premier League history, redefining the standard for the Arsenal goal.
