Leeds United manager Daniel Farke has praised goalkeeper James Trafford following their recent victory over RB Leipzig, describing him as a "top-class" signing with the potential to become one of the club's all-time greats.

Speaking after the match, Farke emphasized that securing a high-caliber player in the goalkeeper position was a priority for the team. He stated that Trafford fits that requirement and expressed confidence in the player's future contributions. "I made no secret out of what I wanted in this position – a top-class player. Right now we’ve got one," Farke said. He added that the club is convinced of Trafford’s abilities and potential, noting that he could become "an outstanding goalkeeper for us in the history of Leeds."

The comments come as Leeds continue to solidify their squad ahead of the new season. Trafford, who recently joined Leeds, has already impressed with his performances, contributing to the team's strong defensive showing against RB Leipzig.

Leeds’ acquisition of Trafford signals the club’s ambition to strengthen key positions and build a competitive roster. While Farke’s remarks highlight the manager’s high expectations for the goalkeeper, fans and analysts will be watching to see how Trafford's career develops at Elland Road.
