Newcastle United have opened negotiations with Burnley over the potential transfer of goalkeeper James Trafford, as both clubs look to strengthen ahead of the new season.
Sources confirmed that talks are ongoing and expected to resume next week, with the summer transfer window now officially open.
Trafford, 21, joined Burnley from Manchester City last year and made 28 appearances in the Premier League during the 2023/2024 campaign. Despite Burnley’s relegation, the England U21 international has attracted interest for his performances and potential.
Newcastle are reportedly looking to bolster their goalkeeping options, and Trafford has emerged as one of their key targets.
Further developments are expected in the coming days as discussions between the two clubs continue.
