Trippier thrilled to work under Simeone after completing Atletico Madrid switch

Kieran Trippier is delighted at the prospect of working under Diego Simeone after completing his move to Atletico Madrid.

England international Trippier officially joined LaLiga giants Atleti from Tottenham on Wednesday, signing a three-year contract in a deal reportedly worth €22 million (£20m).

Trippier impressed in England's charge to the World Cup semi-finals at Russia 2018, but struggled to recapture that form for Spurs last term. This led to boss Gareth Southgate having excluded the former Tottenham man from the UEFA Nations League finals that were played by England at the end of last season.
