James Trafford

In April 2026, reports suggest a potential transfer fee could reach £30 million (approx. €35 million), possibly higher with multiple bidders, while Transfermarkt listed his value at €25 million. In February 2026, Leeds United was reportedly planning a €35 million offer, and Manchester City's valuation was also cited as £30 million. The player completed a transfer from Burnley to Manchester City in July 2025 for a reported €31.2 million. Around that time, Burnley's asking price was reportedly over €40 million, and Newcastle had a £27 million (approx. €31-32 million) offer rejected. Earlier, in April 2025, reports suggested he would cost between €35 million and €40 million.

Our valuation is driven by the consistent reporting from early 2026 that Manchester City values James Trafford at £30 million (approximately €35 million). This figure is strongly supported by his recent transfer from Burnley in July 2025 for €31.2 million and the widespread interest from numerous Premier League clubs, which could inflate the final fee.
