Sky Sports: Trafford is about to undergo a medical examination in Manchester City, with £27 million after the transfer fee discount

July 28 Sky Sports reported that Burnley goalkeeper James Trafford is about to undergo a medical examination in Manchester City.

Manchester City has reached an agreement with Burnley to pay £27 million to re-sign the goalkeeper from his own youth training. The total price of the transaction with Burnley was about £31 million plus additional terms, but the final payment was reduced as Manchester City set a resale share clause in Trafford's contract.

Traford signed a five-year contract with one-year renewal option, which will compete with Ederson for the No. 1 goalkeeper position under Guardiola. Ortega is expected to leave the team, but it has not yet been held. Burnley has always been interested in it.

It is reported that Manchester City is satisfied with the operation of successfully revoking youth training players through repurchase terms. The club may think it is becoming more important to retain such terms when selling players in the future.
