In four years, Raya has played 161 times for Brentford.
David Raya, the goalkeeper for Brentford, is on the radar of Tottenham.
After successful negotiations, the Spain international might join with Spurs, according to the PA news agency.
Despite being connected, Chelsea has not contacted Tottenham, who remain the sole team in talks with Raya's representation and are in the lead.
Thomas Frank, the manager of Brentford, has set a £40 million asking price for the 27-year-old, who only has a year left on his contract with the club. Raya's representation believe the price is excessive for a player with such a short remaining term.
No formal agreement has been reached between the two organizations, and it is believed that Spurs will not agree to pay Brentford's asking price.
Raya is expected to quit the Gtech Community Stadium after telling the PA news agency in February that he had rejected two contract offers from the Bees. However, because Raya has made his home in London, Spurs will have an advantage over their rivals.
Raya, who has played 161 times for Brentford since his arrival in 2019, is currently in the Netherlands for the Nations League finals with Spain, where they will play Italy on June 15.
In order to prepare for life without the former Blackburn goalkeeper, Brentford has already signed Mark Flekken from Freiburg.
As Brentford finished ninth, one point and one place behind Tottenham, Raya made the most saves in the Premier League last season, with 154.
Hugo Lloris revealed he wanted a fresh challenge after 11 years at the club, but the former France international still has one year remaining on his contract. As a result, Spurs are looking for a new number one.
Postecoglou has made quick progress since finalizing a four-year contract to join from Celtic last week. He will assume his new position on July 1.
