Trafford has number one target for World Cup

The 22-year-old Burnley goalkeeper has been included in new manager Tuchel's first squad for the qualifiers against Albania tomorrow and Latvia on Monday.

Trafford has proved almost unbeatable for the Clarets in their quest for promotion to the Premier League, keeping 27 clean sheets in 38 matches.

While Jordan Pickford is the established number one, Trafford says he can be a good fit for Tuchel's style.

"I believe I can play in the way he wants to play," he said. "But no-one's here to make numbers up, everyone's here to challenge and that goes for anyone in the squad.
