'It didn't make sense because he's the fine margins of winning you the Champions League final': Kieran Trippier claims Tottenham would have BEATEN Liverpool in Madrid last summer if midfielder Mousa Dembele was still at the club

Kieran Trippier believes that Tottenham would have beaten Liverpool in the 2019 Champions League final if Mousa Dembele was still a member of the squad.

Dembele joined Chinese Super League club Guangzhou R&F for £11million in January 2019 after making 249 appearances in all competitions for Tottenham since signing from Fulham in 2012.

Trippier, who played in the Champions League final before heading to Atletico Madrid for £20m, said that Dembele would have been key to their success on the European stage.
