Before tonight’s match between England and Malta, Newcastle United captain Kieran Trippier addressed to the media and discussed Jude Bellingham’s transfer to Real Madrid.
Kieran Trippier, who spent three years playing for Atletico Madrid, was an ideal candidate to counsel England’s Jude Bellingham, who recently joined Real Madrid for a whopping transfer fee that might increase to £115 million.
When asked if he had spoken to Bellingham about life in Spain during a press conference with Gareth Southgate, Trippier, a £13 million Newcastle player, replied that he had advised Bellingham to “embrace it.”
Jude Bellingham has received advice from Trippier.
Trippier reported, “I spoke with him a few times today.
“I simply told him to embrace it.
the way of life, the sport, and the league. At such a young age, he will have an incredible opportunity to play for one of the top clubs in the world. I had a nice time there. On the other side, certainly not for Real Madrid, I was able to win the league championship there.
“We’ve had loads of conversations, me and Jude I’m always there for him if he needs help with living etc, which he knows, so I couldn’t be prouder.”
Trippier is influential wherever he goes it seems
Trippier is like the mother hen. People just seem to gravitate towards him. He immediately become a key figure in Newcastle’s dressing room and it seems that he has the same influence on his England teammates.
Even Eberechi Eze singled him out in a recent interview saying that Trippier was the first to reach out to him in the England camp when he arrived.
If Callum Wilson doesn’t abduct him first after his Instagram reel shows him seizing Maddison in training with the caption “Newcastle is this way,” I wonder if Trippier can use his clout to eventually convince James Maddison to join Newcastle while they are in the England camp.
