In England they say that Aston Villa wants Trippier

Kieran Trippier (29 years old) has been one of the signings of the season at Atlético. The right-handed side he arrived last summer from Tottenham in exchange for 22 million euros with the mission of covering the departure of Juanfran, who ended his contract. From the beginning he took over the position and has become an important piece for Simeone during this campaign. He had a groin injury that made him miss seven games between January and February (including the first leg of the Champions League round of 16 against Liverpool). Total, has added 2730 minutes spread over 33 games among all competitions in which he has failed to score a goal, but has given five assists to his companions.

Their good performance during their first year in our league has led to the emergence of various teams interested in repatriating him back to England. The last of them is the Aston Villa, according to the newspaper 'The Telegraph'. The Birmingham club, which finished 17th in the last Premier League (one point behind relegation), he would like to improve his defense to avoid so much suffering this season and would have thought of Trippier to strengthen his right lane. The ‘villains’ are particularly concerned that they were the second-highest scoring team last league (67) and believe that the English international can help them improve those figures.

At the moment, the interest does not go beyond a mere survey and there is no talk of a specific offer, but It seems difficult for Atlético to consider negotiating his departure despite the fact that precisely in their position the mattresses They are 'overbooked' with Arias, Vrsaljko and Trippier himself. However, It is the Colombian who has the most ballots to continue his career away from the Wanda Metropolitano the next course.
