All the large rectangles on the edges are anchor points meant to keep the tray in place. Don’t worry about those for now.

As for the rest, you don’t see trace becaude they are via point which means the good into the layers of the motherboard.

I would reccomend to solder micro wire on the solder points that you see in the pads and then solder the pins of the reader to the wires.

I would reccomend to solder a micro wire on the solder points that you see in the pads and then solder the pins of the reader to the wires.
Some of those pads are just half missing so you can still solder the pins to them, and don’t worry about the ones that are lifted. They are still connected for now.
The worst one to deal with is the one with only a small circle left. Maybe start by adding solder to it and try to make it stick out before attaching a wire to it. Solder paste and hotair a a good option here but use VERY LITTLE to make sure it does not go everywhere.
If you have wick, you can pull the strings to make micro wires.
You may want to use crazy glue to secure the frame of the reader in place once your done since your missing so many anchor points.

You can also bridge the top of the frame to the top metal plate to help secured the tray in place. There are all ground so it’s ok to do that.

Feel free to let me know if you have any questions. This is still repairable, but will he difficult to do without good equipment and skills.

It is not as bad as it seems.
