The Newcastle Football Club became the richest club in the world in October.
Newcastle bought a consortium from Saudi Arabia, and we will see the first effects of the money during the winter transfer window.
Many reinforcements were pompously announced, but the first leg could be withdrawn by a member of the England national team.
Since mid-December, there has been talking of the potential arrival of 31-year-old right-back Kieran Trippier from Atletico Madrid.
And the Italian journalist Fabrizio Romano reports that the situation around the negotiations is going well and that Kieran is getting closer to Newcastle.
The official offer of Atletico Madrid is being prepared, Trippier has already requested a transfer, and it seems that Simeone’s “Cholo” will have to make concessions in the end, although he has the most problems at the right back.
But it is never good to keep a dissatisfied player, so he could look for a new solution in January.
Trippier grew up in Manchester City, but his career took an upward trajectory when he left for Burnley.
He played there until 2015 when he moved to Tottenham, while from 2019 he was at Atletico Madrid who paid him 22 million euros.
This season, Trippier played 17 matches for the “quilters” without any concrete effect.
