Fabrizio Romano shares what he’s heard about Kieran Trippier’s future at Newcastle amid Turkey interest
It was a hugely underwhelming summer transfer window for Eddie Howe and his side who did not see his squad improved.
If anything, Newcastle fans may well argue that the Toon actually got weaker over the summer following their two big sales due to the PSR scares in June.
With Elliot Anderson and Yankuba Minteh departing the club, Newcastle really failed in their efforts to add major players to Howe’s squad.
However, there is still an opportunity for further playrs to depart the club with the likes of the Turkish market still open for business.
Kieran Trippier has been linked with Newcastle exit
With hours remaining in the Turkish market, Kieran Trippier has been linked with a potential move to Turkey over the coming days.
It has been a summer of speculation for the former England international with Trippier believed to be open to leaving Newcastle.
But the clock is now ticking for the right-back with his options now extremely limited with most of the markets shut.
Kieran Trippier has an important role to play at Newcastle
It has been a difficult start to the season for Trippier who has only made one appearance in the Premier League which provided 32 minutes of action.
Clearly, the momentum has now swung in Tino Livramento’s favour at right-back under Howe this season with the youngster picking up the starts.
However, Trippier still has an important role to play in maintaining a good example of himself around the club if he is to stay.
It’s believed Trippier informed Howe he wanted to leave Newcastle, but if that does not pan out then he must carry himself in a professional manner as an opportunity could arise if Livramento is to pick up an injury.
