Newcastle United has reportedly settled on personal terms with Burnley goalkeeper James Trafford and is set to make an improved offer of £15 million plus add-ons, aiming for the Burnley request of £20 million. Trafford, a former Manchester City youth player and recent England under-21 Euros winner, is seen as a potential competitor to current Newcastle No.1 Nick Pope. Newcastle’s interest in Trafford comes amidst uncertainties surrounding their other goalkeepers, with Loris Karius departing by June end and Martin Dubravka attracting interest from other clubs.
