Manchester United and Napoli are both interested in the signature of Tottenham’s Kieran Trippier this summer, according to reports in Italy.

The 28-year-old has been a regular fixture in Spurs’ team this season, making 25 Premier League appearances, more than in any other season since he arrived from Burnley in 2015.

The England wing-back still has three years left on the contract which he signed in 2017, but it appears that there are clubs circling to try and tempt him away from north London.

According to Italian journalist Gianluca Di Marzio we could see a fight between the Red Devils and the team from Naples for the Spurs man.

United are expected to be in the market for a right-back this summer, after struggling in that position over the season.



Antonio Valencia fell out of favour under Jose Mourinho and has struggled with injury problems, while the Ecuadorian has now hinted that he is heading for the Old Trafford exit.

Matteo Darmian and Diogo Dalot have also been deployed in that position, but Ole Gunnar Solskjaer may want to improve his options.

Crystal Palace’s Aaron Wan-Bissaka has also been heavily linked with a move to United, while Arsenal and Manchester City are also interested in his services.

Trippier was signed from Burnley in 2015 for a fee of around £3.5m, and has gone on to make 108 appearances in all competitions for Spurs.

His performances earned himself a spot in England’s 2018 World Cup squad and he memorably opened the scoring in the semi-final as England went on to lose to Croatia.

While there may be interest in the Manchester City youth product, any negotiations would only begin after the season has finished as Spurs continue to fight for the Champions League and a Premier League top four spot.
