Newcastle agree £12m fee with Atletico Madrid for Kieran Trippier

On Tuesday, Newcastle and Atletico Madrid reached an agreement to sign Trippier after a series of smooth and pleasant conversations.

The club will pay £12 million-plus add-ons to become the 31-year-old the first signing of the Saudi Arabia-backed regime’s new Newcastle era.

Atletico had hoped Trippier would stay, but he expressed his desire to return to England.

When Eddie Howe was in charge of Burnley, he worked with Trippier, signing him from Manchester City in January 2012 after an excellent loan spell at Turf Moor.

Newcastle United’s owners are hoping to add at least three more players this month in order to keep the team in the Premier League.

They are currently in second place in the table, two points from safety, having played 19 league matches this season.

After winning the Champions League, Kylian Mbappé is expected to be announced as a new signing by Real Madrid the following week.

In February, the 25-year-old international athlete made his choice. He can now be regarded as a new Real player because every document has been completed, sealed, and signed.

As per media reports, Kylian Mbappé joined Real Madrid from Paris Saint-Germain on a free transfer. “.. I wanted to announce to you all that it’s my last year at Paris Saint-Germain. I will not extend and the adventure will come to an end in a few weeks. I will play my last game as Parc des Princes on Sunday,” Mbappe said in a video statement on X.

“It’s a lot of emotions. (For) many years I had the chance and great honour to be a member of the biggest French club, one of the best in the world which allowed me to travel here,” Mbappe added.

“It’s hard and I never thought it would be this difficult to announce that I will leave the country, France, the league and the Championship. But I think, I needed this, a new challenge after seven years.”
