Goalkeeper back at the Etihad following Burnley spell
Newcastle suffer latest blow in frustrating window
James Trafford will rejoin Manchester City from Burnley after the club matched a £27m offer from Newcastle for the goalkeeper, who will sign a five-year deal at the Etihad Stadium.
The 22-year-old started his career at City after joining the academy from Carlisle. He never made a first-team appearance for the club, spending time on loan at Accrington, Bolton and Burnley before moving to Turf Moor for £14m.
Trafford will join Ederson and Stefan Ortega at City in the battle to be first choice. Ederson has been a regular under Pep Guardiola but is a target for Galatasaray while Ortega has been the subject of numerous inquiries this summer.
