Real in shock link with Trippier
Real Madrid might not be finished with the Premier League after Courtois and Hazard. They are also being linked with Tottenham Hotspur defender Kieran Trippier. Trippier would fetch at least £50m, though Spurs would resist any offer from the Spanish club. A move would be a surprise given they already have Dani Carvajal, and have just spent £50m on Alvaro Odriozola from Real Sociedad.
If Real are selling Carvajal, then it would make sense that the club want two right-backs to fight it out for his place. But Odriozola can play as a right-winger, and Trippier has displayed his abilities higher up the pitch as a right-wing back. Given the versatility of the two, it can’t be ruled out that Julen Lopetegui is looking to shake up the tactics after Ronaldo’s departure.
