Playing for Man City has been one of my goals since age 12: James Trafford (Image Source: IANS)
Accrington Stanley FC: English goalkeeper James Trafford, while reflecting on his return to Manchester City, said that he always believed he would come back to City, as he worked hard to make it happen.
The 22-year-old goalkeeper, who spent almost eight years at Man City as part of their Academy before moving to Turf Moor in 2023, has completed a move to the Etihad Stadium, putting pen to paper on a five-year deal until June 2030, from Burnley.
"It’s brilliant for me. Since I joined at 12, playing for Man City has always been one of my goals. Even when my path took me elsewhere—on loan at 18 or moving to Burnley at 20—I always believed I’d come back. I’ve worked hard to make this moment happen," Trafford said on JioHotstar.
