Eddie Howe pushing Newcastle United to tie Kieran Trippier to new contract

Newcastle United defender Kieran Trippier will be out of contract at the end of the season, and he has been linked with a move away from the club.

Kieran Trippier has done quite well since joining Newcastle United, and it appears that Eddie Howe is not prepared to lose him yet. The Tyneside club’s head coach is now pushing them to agree on a new contract with the experienced defender, according to a report by Football Insider.

The former English international cost £12 million when he joined Newcastle United, and he is in the twilight stages of his career, and it will be interesting to see if Newcastle can agree on a new deal with him. A short-term deal could be ideal for all parties.

Newcastle United need players with his quality and experience in the team, and Trippier could be useful for the club in the coming seasons as well. The experienced defender will want to compete at the highest level, and staying in the Premier League would be ideal for him. It remains to be seen whether he is prepared to sign a short-term contract with the Tyneside outfit.

Can Newcastle United convince Trippier to sign a new deal?

The English defender is not the first-choice right-back at the club, and he is behind Valentino Livramento in the pecking order. However, widespread reports have linked the youngster with several Premier League bigwigs.

So, a renewal may be on the cards for Trippier. It will be interesting to see if Newcastle United can provide him with the necessary assurance and convince him to find a new deal. At his age, it will be difficult for him to play regularly at the highest level. The Englishman will have to accept the role of a squad player if he wants to compete in the Premier League.

It will be interesting to see if the player is willing to sign a new contract with Newcastle United or if he decides to move on. He has been linked with a move to Saudi Arabia and MLS in recent months.

If he wants to play regularly, leaving the Premier League would be ideal for him. The 35-year-old defender has four assists to his name this season, and he can be an asset for Newcastle United at both ends of the pitch.
