Nathan Trott: Promotion is Cardiff City’s ‘only goal’, says goalkeeper

Trott has been the only player brought in to Cardiff City Stadium since the Bluebirds were relegated from the Championship.

He has kept clean sheets in each of his two league appearances against Port Vale and Rotherhan United while he also featured in the EFL Cup first round win against Swindon Town.

His style of play has been evident from the outset – with the 26-year-old demonstrating an impressive ability to help Cardiff build from the back.

And Trott says his capabilities in possession were a pivotal factor in Barry-Murphy’s decision to sign him on loan from Copenhagen.

“For me it was just the energy I had from the coaching staff and the sporting director – speaking with them on a few calls, the energy I felt was that they wanted me and the type of ‘keeper that I am and how they would use me in the system that we play. I think it’ll bring the best out of my game,” said Trott.

“I think that (style) was one of the main factors, to have someone who is comfortable with the ball at their feet. I think that’s one of my strengths.

“For me it’s just to keep adapting to the system that we have and getting used to different tactics and finding the fine details on how we’re supposed to play and our identity as a team. That, for me, is the next challenge, just to try and keep improving.”
