The 21-year-old, who moved from Manchester City to Turf Moor last summer, has had a difficult season.
Although not entirely at fault, Trafford has let up 60 goals in 27 games this season and has made several expensive mistakes. Supporters have been calling for number two Arijanet Muric, a crucial player in last season’s Championship title success, to receive an opportunity in goal due to the goalkeeper’s apparent decline in confidence in recent weeks.

Although Kompany is unwilling to go into a personal argument, he did offer an intriguing statement regarding his level of confidence in Trafford.
“I keep it simple, I focus on the team right now. I have no desire to open up any individual conversations about this,” he said.
“It’s a decision. At the end of the day, the biggest thing is that eventually I will definitely be right. I have no doubt about this.
“We have to stick together. It won’t ever be perfect but that’s the only way we’re going to get results.”
Kompany has previously gone on record with his claim that Trafford will one day be a regular for England’s senior side.
Despite his mixed displays this season, that assertion hasn’t changed.
“To me it’s that obvious, but in the end all this talk of the future, I don’t really think about it that much,” he added.
“I know that, but in the end the main thing for me is that I could let everyone go with a machine gun through the squad in that sense, because then it’s the mistake from this, there’s the guy who missed the ball in front of the goal…
“But at this moment in time, the only thing they need to hear from me is that I trust and believe in them more than anyone in the outside world – and I do that, every single day.”
