- Sources say Rulli is set to sign a two-year contract running to 2028, with some reports adding an optional extra year.
- The move follows James Trafford’s big-money transfer to Leeds, creating an immediate vacancy for a ready-made, experienced backup.
- Media coverage disagrees on the fee, with figures reported across outlets from about €2 million up to roughly €3.5–3.8 million.
