James Trafford has described his lack of first-team football at Manchester City last season as “horrendous”, saying the experience led him to leave the club and join Leeds United in the summer.
Trafford said he felt he had no choice but to move on after not playing for City during the previous season. His comments underline the importance he placed on regular competitive football and represent the reason he gave for ending his time at the Manchester club.
The goalkeeper subsequently joined Leeds United during the summer. No further details about his appearances, the terms of the move or his role at Leeds were provided in the available material.
Trafford’s latest known position is therefore that he has left Manchester City for Leeds United after a season in which he did not play for his former club.
