Trafford's Dilemma: Unsure About Next Season's Role
16 Feb
Summary
- Trafford rejoined City for £31 million after a successful spell at Burnley.
- He started as City's number one but now serves as backup.
- Uncertainty surrounds his future playing time and England squad prospects.
Manchester City goalkeeper James Trafford's future remains a significant question mark as the current season progresses. Having rejoined the club for a substantial £31 million fee this summer, Trafford initially secured the number one position, starting the first three league games.
However, the late signing of Gianluigi Donnarumma shifted Trafford to a backup role. He acknowledged the unexpected nature of this change, stating his commitment to daily hard work and seizing opportunities when they arise. Trafford is now focused on improving his game and taking each day as it comes.
His appearances have largely been confined to domestic cup fixtures and a single Champions League start. This limited game time has led to speculation about his standing with the England squad, though Trafford remains determined to perform his best whenever called upon.
