"According to a report from Football Insider, Howe is pushing for Newcastle to give Trippier a new contract to avoid losing him on a free at the end of this current campaign. Trippier had fallen out of favour at one point, but he's now back to his best and performing well in Howe's side, leading the Magpies boss to change his mind about the player's situation."
"Newcastle may still need Kieran Trippier. Still, it looks more and more like Newcastle still need Trippier, with some doubts over Tino Livramento's future ahead of this summer. The former Chelsea youngster is being linked with Arsenal and other big clubs, and it won't be easy to replace him if he does move on."
Kieran Trippier is set to become a free agent this summer after four years at Newcastle United, but manager Eddie Howe is pushing the club to offer him a new contract. The veteran England international had previously fallen out of favour but has recently returned to form and is performing well under Howe's management. Trippier has previously pursued moves to Turkish clubs that fell through. Newcastle may benefit from keeping him, particularly given uncertainty surrounding Tino Livramento's future, as the young defender is being targeted by Arsenal and other top clubs. Retaining Trippier could provide stability at right-back if Livramento departs.
