Former England defender Kieran Trippier announced Saturday that he will leave Premier League side Newcastle at the end of the season when his contract expires.
The 35-year-old full-back has made over 150 appearances in all competitions since joining Newcastle from Atletico Madrid in January 2022.
He played a major role in the Magpies winning the League Cup last season, their first major trophy in 70 years, and also helped them to qualify for the Champions League twice in the last three campaigns.
“The time has come to leave this amazing club after four and a half years,” Trippier told the club website.
“This is where I have felt most at home. It’s emotional, and I’m really going to miss it.”
The former Burnley and Tottenham player, capped 54 times by England, paid tribute to his teammates.
“It’s going to be emotional, it’s been an amazing journey with you guys,” he said.
