Softfootball has gathered that Kieran Trippier will leave Newcastle United as a free agent at the end of the 2025/26 season. The 35-year-old right-back is preparing for a new chapter once his contract expires in June. This was revealed by transfer guru Fabrizio Romano via his official X channel.
Romano stated:
Kieran Trippier will leave Newcastle as free agent at the end of the season. Decision made. The right back is ready for a new chapter.
Trippier joined Newcastle in 2022 for around £12 million and quickly became a key figure in the club’s resurgence. His leadership, experience, and quality delivery from wide areas played a crucial role in helping the Magpies secure a return to UEFA Champions League football.
Looking ahead, Trippier is expected to attract interest from multiple destinations. AS Monaco FC were previously linked with a potential move, while clubs in the Premier League, MLS, and Saudi Arabia could also explore opportunities to sign the experienced defender. At this stage of his career, he has also hinted at a possible transition into coaching in the future.
Renowned for his set-piece ability and consistency, he has been one of the standout signings of the club’s modern era. His departure will mark the end of an influential spell at Newcastle, where he helped lay the foundation for the club’s recent progress and growing ambitions.
Meanwhile, Achraf Hakimi has reaffirmed his long-term commitment to Paris Saint-Germain. The Moroccan international has expressed his desire to remain in Paris, dismissing speculation about a potential move away and underlining his focus on achieving further success with the club.
The updates highlight contrasting career paths with Trippier preparing for a new challenge, while Hakimi looks set to continue building his legacy at PSG.
