Kieran Trippier's Potential Departure from Newcastle United
Kieran Trippier's Transfer Situation
Kieran Trippier wants to leave Newcastle United before the transfer window closes, with Everton among the clubs keen to sign the full-back. Trippier was the first recruit by the new ownership on Tyneside in January 2022 and has played a central role in the club’s rise. However, the 33-year-old was an unused substitute in Saturday’s opening-weekend victory after Eddie Howe decided to select another player at right-back.
Trippier's Future and Everton's Interest
The former Atletico Madrid and England defender, who turns 34 next month, has two years left on his contract—a new deal was done last season—but he wishes to explore fresh opportunities that will provide regular first-team football. Everton intends to strengthen in Trippier’s preferred position and have held initial conversations with Newcastle to express interest in bringing him to Merseyside on loan. Everton manager Sean Dyche and Trippier worked together while at Burnley between 2012-2015. There have also been talks about moving to the Saudi Pro League, but an agreement is yet to materialize.
