Everton on alert as Trippier seeks Newcastle departure

According to The Athletic, the 33-year-old right-back is adamant about departing Newcastle before the upcoming closure of the summer transfer window in England, which is just over a week away.

On Saturday, Trippier was taken aback when Valentino Livramento was selected ahead of him for victory over Southampton. At the same time, the captain's armband was handed over to Bruno Guimaraes. 

As such, Trippier is now actively trying to get a move away from Newcastle in search of regular playing time. 

Everton are an early option for Trippier, who has a deal to 2026 with Newcastle.
