Bayern Munich are interested in signing Newcastle and England right-back Kieran Trippier, according to Sky in Germany.
With Bayern facing difficulties in agreeing a loan deal with Paris Saint-Germain for Nordi Mukiele, the focus is now turning to Trippier
Bayern, managed by former Chelsea manager Thomas Tuchel, have discussed the 33-year-old intensively over the last two days.
Trippier has seven assists in 19 Premier League matches for Newcastle this season but his performances have dipped in recent weeks.
The right-back was responsible for multiple mistakes leading to goals in Newcastle’s 3-0 defeat at Everton and their 4-1 loss at Tottenham.
Trippier’s clumsy backpass was also responsible for Chelsea snatching a late equaliser in the Carabao Cup quarter-final loss against Newcastle, which the Magpies lost on penalties.
The England international was one of the first major signings for Newcastle’s Saudi Arabia ownership when he joined for £12m from Atletico Madrid in January 2022.
