Monaco move for Newcastle veteran Trippier

The 34 year-old defender has less than a year to run on his Magpies deal.

Sky Sports says Monaco are keen to ferry Trippier across The Channel before the market shuts at the end of the month.

However, Newcastle are reluctant to lose Trippier, though the player is in two minds.

Trippier isn't a guaranteed starter at Newcastle given Tino Livramento's emergence, which has him considering seriously Monaco's approach.
