However, after agreeing a deal with Tottenham, Trippier arrived in Madrid on Wednesday where he underwent a medical before putting pen-to-paper on a three-year deal.

Trippier, 28, started his career with Manchester City's youth team but, after two loan spells to Barnsley and one at Burnley, he joined the Turf Moor side on a permanent basis in 2011, having made no first team appearances at the Etihad.
