Newcastle Rejects Second Bayern Munich Bid for Kieran Trippier
Despite the rejection, Bayern Munich is expected to make a third offer before the close of the transfer window.
- Newcastle United have rejected a second bid from Bayern Munich for England international Kieran Trippier, this time worth just under £13 million.
- Newcastle have reiterated that Trippier is not for sale this month, but anticipate a third offer from Bayern before the close of the window.
- Bayern Munich's interest in Trippier is driven by a need for a new right-back, with Noussair Mazraoui sidelined due to injury and Africa Cup of Nations commitments.
- Trippier has been a key player for Newcastle since his arrival from Atletico Madrid in January 2022, scoring three goals and providing 18 assists in 81 appearances.
- Bayern Munich have also been trying to sign Paris St-Germain right back Nordi Mukiele, but talks have not progressed.
