Atletico Madrid 'join Napoli in race for Kieran Trippier'

Atletico Madrid have reportedly joined the race to sign Tottenham Hotspur defender Kieran Trippier.

The 28-year-old played a key role in England's run to the semi-finals of the 2018 World Cup.

The right-back has again been a regular for Tottenham this season - making 37 appearances in all competitions - although he has struggled to show his best form for Mauricio Pochettino's side.

Napoli continue to be strongly linked with a move for Trippier, but according to The Mirror, Atletico are also keen to land the former Manchester City youngster as Juanfran prepares to leave the Spanish giants.

Trippier is expected to start the Champions League final against Liverpool at the start of next month before leaving the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium in search of pastures new.
