Hope for the main gatekeeper position in Manchester City has disappeared. I made up my mind with the transfer.
Britain's Daily Mail reported on the 2nd (Korea time) that the Manchester City star wants to leave the team five months after the transfer.
The Daily Mail said 'Man City's two goalkeepers have expressed their intention to leave the club. It comes months after a major reorganization of the goalkeeper's position in eight years. James Trafford and Stefan Orte are both interested in the transfer window. In particular, Trafford was transferred after being told he would join as a mainstay at Burnley. Ederson then left for Fenerbahce. However, Gianluigi Donnarumma joined from Paris Saint-Germain (PSG) on the closing day of the transfer window.

Trafford is one of England's promising goalkeepers. He moved to Burnley through the Manchester City youth team and blossomed. From the 2023-2024 season to the previous season, he played as Burnley's gatekeeper, showing off his stable defense, reflexes, and compliance kicks. Manchester City selected Traffdo, who moved to Burnley, as Ederson's replacement and returned for a little less than the buyback.
Trafford, who joined Manchester City as Ederson's replacement, was promised the position of the main goalkeeper, but a big variable broke out. Donnarumma, who decided to transfer just before the end of the summer transfer market, will wear a Manchester City uniform. Donnarumma is the world's top goalkeeper, and there is no comparison. Everyone acknowledges Trafford's promise, but he couldn't push Donnarumma away. In the end, Trafford has only started three league games this season.

Trafford, who wanted to join the England national team and play in the World Cup, wants to save a new team in the winter transfer market at a time when changes are needed. It has been only five months since Trafford moved to Manchester City, but he will want to secure regular playing time because it may be difficult to play in the World Cup itself.
Manchester City also needs to make a decision. The Daily Mail said: "'Man City will have to make a decision on what to do with the player composition that underpins Donnarumma, as both Trafford and Orte are expected to be gone.'"
