Newcastle United’s pursuit of James Trafford from Burnley is progressing well. Initially, Newcastle officials deemed Valencia’s Giorgi Mamardashvili too expensive, making a move for the 21-year-old Trafford increasingly likely. Reports confirmed that Newcastle has made a £16 million offer for Trafford, whose move is also driven by Burnley’s financial needs.
