England international Kieran Trippier has announced his retirement from international duty. The Newcastle United right-back, who represented his country at three major international tournaments, calls time on his international career at 33 with 54 caps to his name. Trippier scored England’s opener in their World Cup semi-final against Croatia in 2018, captaining his country three times under Gareth Southgate. His announcement comes just hours before England interim manager Lee Carsley names his first squad for Nations League games against the Republic of Ireland and Finland. #footballfanarena #ffa #england #trippier #newcastleunited #garethsouthgate #football #transferwindow #premierleague

Manchester United’s pursuit of Noussair Mazraoui has taken a blow with the sale of Aaron Wan-Bissaka to West Ham reportedly in jeopardy. The Red Devils are very keen on signing Mazraoui from Bayern Munich, but the deal relies on them selling Wan-Bissaka to the Irons. While it is said that West Ham are content to meet United’s £18million valuation of the right-back, the 26-year-old is not so keen on the move, with the transfer stalling over his wage demands. With new manager Julen Lopetegui desperate for a new right-back, The Telegraph report that he has turned his attention to Newcastle United and England star Kieran Trippier. #footballfanarena #ffa #manchesterunited #noussairmazraoui #westham #newcastleunited #england #football

Former Atletico Madrid star Kieran Trippier has urged Chelsea midfielder Conor Gallagher to consider a move to Spain this summer, according to reports. Gallagher wore the captain’s armband for most of Chelsea’s 2023-24 season in the absence of Reece James and was a key figure in midfield under Mauricio Pochettino. But the 24-year-old has just one year left on his contract at Stamford Bridge and could leave the Blues this summer. Tottenham are interested in bringing Gallagher across the capital to north London but Atletico are also interested in signing him before the start of the new campaign. #footballfanarena #FFA #Chelsea #tottenham #madrid

Rio Ferdinand says Bukaya Saka should start at left-back if Kieran Trippier and Luke Shaw are both ruled out of England’s Euro 2024 clash with Denmark.
