Trafford Opens Up on Tough Start at Man City: 'I Try to Stay Happy'

James Trafford has spoken candidly about the difficulties of settling in at Manchester City, admitting his move hasn't gone as smoothly as he hoped. The young goalkeeper, currently serving as backup to Gianluigi Donnarumma, says he focuses on 'winning each day' despite not achieving 'the best possible outcome' so far.

In a recent interview, Trafford acknowledged the challenge of adapting to life at the Etihad, but remains positive about his progress. 'I try to stay happy,' he said, emphasizing his determination to make the most of every opportunity.

Trafford joined City with high expectations, but has found first-team minutes hard to come by behind the Italian international. Nevertheless, he insists he is committed to improving and contributing when called upon.
