Possible big change in Man City squad. Their first goalkeeper, Ederson, is said to have reached an agreement to leave the club for Galatasaray.
He will be replaced by young James Trafford, who is only 22 years old. Trafford already had a contract with Man City in the past but left for Burnley in 2023. Now the City are very keen on getting him back. They are not the only club interested in the young goalkeeper. Newcastle have also made an offer to Burnley (of £27 million), but it got rejected. The City have much deeper pockets though, so I'm sure they will come to an agreement, even if Burnley negotiate hard.
Anyhow, if it comes to that, that will be a big change and could have a significant impact on the club's performance in the upcoming season.
Reports from Goal and Fanatik say that Ederson has already agreed personal terms with Galatasaray. But Galla has offered only €3 million. That's far below his value. Don't think city will accept that. Sky Sports says City have opened talks with Burnley to trigger, but renegotiate, their £40 m buy‑back on 22‑year‑old James Trafford. Newcastle deed make an offer of £27 million for him, which was rejected. It looks like city are just looking at options. They are probably still not ready to let their number one go until they find a good replacement and a good value.
