Trafford was one of four goalkeepers named in Tuchel’s first England squad in March, but didn’t feature in either of their wins against Albania and Latvia.
The Clarets stopper has enjoyed a record-breaking season at Turf Moor, keeping 29 of Burnley’s 30 clean sheets. He conceded just 16 goals during Burnley’s promotion-winning campaign.
Trafford isn’t the only uncapped player to feature in Tuchel’s squad, as Chelsea’s Trevoh Chalobah also receives a call up.
