Leeds United fan tracks private jet activity that suggests new signing is imminent

Those high-profile exits left manager Daniel Farke without a senior, established line of defense heading into the new season.

Trafford, who made 17 appearances and registered eight clean sheets for Manchester City last campaign following his return from Burnley, has emerged as Elland Road’s undisputed primary target.

Although social media speculation has intensified following the private jet sightings, any deal will still depend on Leeds and Manchester City reaching a full agreement.

If negotiations are successfully concluded, Trafford would represent one of Leeds’ biggest signings of the summer and fill one of the most important positions in Daniel Farke’s squad ahead of the new season.
