James Trafford, Burnley goalkeeper, is undergoing a medical examination today, Monday, in preparation for completing his transfer to Manchester City during the ongoing summer transfer window.

Manchester City has reached a final agreement with Burnley to re-sign the goalkeeper, who progressed through the club's academy, for £27 million. The original value of the deal was £31 million plus incentives, but the sell-on clause in the player's contract helped reduce the amount paid.

Trafford's contract with Manchester City will last for five years, with an option to extend for an additional year, as the goalkeeper competes with Brazilian Ederson for the starting position under coach Pep Guardiola.

Goalkeeper Stefan Ortega is expected to leave the team this summer, with Burnley interested in signing him, while Ederson's situation remains uncertain despite recent links to a move to Turkish club Galatasaray.

This deal is a successful example of the buy-back policy that Manchester City employs with graduates of its academy, as the management sees an increasing importance in activating this clause in the future.
