Bayern Munich Want Newcastle United Defender Kieran Trippier!
Bayern Munich are reportedly eyeing Newcastle United's right-back Kieran Trippier for a January transfer. The Bavarians' headcoach, Thomas Tuchel has openly expressed the team's need for a strong right-back and mentioned ongoing efforts to secure one.
Initially targeting Paris Saint-Germain's Nordi Mukiele, Bayern's negotiations hit a snag, leading them to consider Trippier. According to Sky Germany, Newcastle may be willing to loan Trippier to Bayern for the remainder of the season. However it is not known yet if they would be willing to sell the defender permanently this summer.
Trippier has played a pivotal role in Newcastle's improvement since the involvement of the Saudi Public Investment Fund. However, with the 33-year-old entering the final 18 months of his contract, Newcastle face a limited timeframe to capitalize on his market value.
This potential transfer could provide a beneficial solution for both clubs, addressing Bayern's immediate needs and allowing Newcastle to optimize the value of Trippier's contribution. The Englishman has been vital for the Magpies, assisting seven goals in 19 Premier League games so far.
Having signed Harry Kane and Eric Dier already this summer, Kieran Trippier could turn out to be the third Englishman signed by Bayern Munich this season if the deal goes through.
