Arsenal shot stopper David Raya admits that competition from Aaron Ramsdale is making him better.
The England keeper is now second choice to Raya after the arrival of the Spaniard in the summer.
While Ramsdale is battling to get back his no.1 shirt, Raya wants to go from strength to strength as well.
“He is a top, top goalkeeper and a top, top team-mate," said Raya to reporters.
“We are team-mates, we are fighting for one position.
“That's the only problem being a goalkeeper, there is only one that can play and I am just there to help the team as much as possible.
“Aaron and me we have a good relationship, especially as we push each other in every training session. That is going to make us better and it is going to make the team better.
“Of course [he has made me a better goalkeeper], and I think I have made him a better goalkeeper.
“If we see with each other when we are training that we can help each other, that's how we are and that's how we do. That's the GK union that from the outside that you see."
