Manchester City Football Club announced the signing of another young and talented goalkeeper during the summer transfer window. According to the club's official website, Burnley's goalkeeper James Trafford will now officially play for the "Citizens." The agreement between the parties is valid until 2030.
Negotiations regarding the transfer lasted several weeks, and eventually a deal worth £27 million was reached. This amount demonstrates the club's belief in the young player's potential and confidence in his future development.
James Trafford is a product of Manchester City's academy and played in various youth categories of the club from 2015 to 2023. After that, he moved to Burnley and, in the past season, played 45 matches as the main goalkeeper in the Championship. During the season, Trafford conceded only 16 goals, which brought him to the attention of many.
The club's management and coaching staff expect great results from him. Trafford's professional approach, his high level of play despite his young age, and his strong character are expected to make Manchester City's defense even more reliable.
Fans are looking forward to seeing how James Trafford will perform in the new season and how his arrival will affect the competition in the team. With the addition of the new goalkeeper, the "Citizens'" defensive line is expected to become even stronger.
