Man City handed transfer cash boost amid James Trafford potential sale to Premier League newcomers

Manchester City would only have to hand over a 'small percentage' of any transfer fee received for goalkeeper James Trafford this summer to Carlisle United according to the League One club's chief executive Nigel Clibbens.

The 20-year-old City stopper has spent the last 18 months on loan at League One side Bolton Wanderers. There he has picked up valuable experience and played regularly as he became the first-choice stopper for Whites boss Ian Evatt.

In a season-and-a-half with Wanderers, Trafford played 74 times and picked up silverware too after winning the Papa John's Trophy with Bolton at Wembley earlier this year with a 4-0 thrashing of Plymouth Argyle.

The England under-21 international has a long-term deal with City which he signed last summer. He is committed to the Etihad Stadium outfit until the summer of 2027.
