Balague: Newcastle in talks to sign £22m England star, Toon fans react on Twitter
that Newcastle United are in talks to sign Kieran Trippier – and Toon fans have reacted on Twitter.
Trippier, 31, has rejuvenated his career at Atletico Madrid. Leaving Tottenham after a disappointing 2018-19 season, he has starred for Atleti.
In the two years he has spent with the Spanish club, the ex-Manchester City and Burnley defender has clocked up a total of 82 outings.
He has helped Diego Simeone’s side win the La Liga title – pipping both Real Madrd and Barcelona last season. Trippier is a key player for Atleti.
But he has spoken of his desire to return to the Premier League in recent weeks. Now, Newcastle’s owners could be about to give him that chance.
“I hear Newcastle are really interested in getting Trippier. They have started negotiations with his people. I am not sure if they will get him.”
What are Newcastle fans saying about Balague on Trippier?
Newcastle do need a right-back. Jacob Murphy has been used on the right side of the defence of late, while Javi Manquillo is hardly the answer.
Trippier would be a real statement of intent, a player that Eddie Howe initially signed while on loan at Burnley – before it was made permanent.
Of course, Howe is expected to sign a three-year deal to become the Newcastle boss – and luring Trippier to the north east would see a reunion.
So, Newcastle fans have had their say on Twitter – and many believe the addition of the £22million () ace would be a top signing.
