James Trafford: England U21 goalkeeper has 'top mentality', says Lee Carsley

James Trafford is well equipped to deal with becoming the third most expensive English goalkeeper ever because he has a "really top mentality", according to England Under-21 boss Lee Carsley.

Trafford, who is set to join Burnley from Manchester City in a deal that could be worth up to £19m, was the hero when he saved a stoppage-time penalty as the Young Lions beat Spain in the European U21 Championship final on Saturday.

The 20-year-old also helped England become the first team to record six successive clean sheets in the tournament's history.

"I think he'll be absolutely fine," said Carsley.
