Kieran John Trippier

Kieran John Trippier is an English right-back born in Bury on 19 September 1990. He joined Manchester City’s academy at nine and helped win the 2008 FA Youth Cup, although he never made a competitive first-team appearance for the club. A loan at Barnsley preceded his move to Burnley, where he developed into a prominent Championship full-back through his crossing and delivery. Trippier joined Tottenham Hotspur in 2015 and became a regular after Kyle Walker left, helping Spurs reach the 2019 Champions League final. In 2019, he moved to Atlético Madrid and contributed to their 2020–21 La Liga title triumph. He also represented England at the 2018 World Cup, where his set-piece delivery became a notable feature. After joining Newcastle in January 2022, Kieran Trippier brought experienced defending, crossing and leadership to the club’s back line.
