Trusty is a USA international, and began his career with Philadelphia Union, having joined the MLS side at the age of 13.
In 2022, the centreback moved to Arsenal from Colorado Rapids, but was immediately loaned back to the club, before joining Championship Birmingham City on loan in 2022.
A permanent move to Sheffield United followed, and after last season’s relegation from the Premier League, he makes the move north to Scotland.
