Spanish media outlet AS, as quoted by the Daily Mail, is reporting that Manchester United have held a long-term interest in the England international.
The same article states that the Red Devils, however, were unprepared to meet Atletico’s asking price for the former Tottenham Hotspur defender in the summer transfer window.
According to the same report, Trippier, 31, is still eager to secure a switch to Manchester United next year despite a proposed move not materialising in the summer.
AS go on to state that Manchester United’s current stance on Trippier is unclear despite the former Spurs right-back being eager to move to the club that he supported as a boy.
The article reveals that Newcastle United are interested in Trippier and the cash-rich club would compete with Manchester United for the England man if he becomes available to sign.
