Kieran Trippier: Newcastle United complete £12m signing from Atletico Madrid

Newcastle United have made their first signing under their new ownership, with England star joining the Toon in a £12million two-and-a-half-year deal from Atletico Madrid.

The Magpies are set for a busy January transfer window with new boss Eddie Howe desperate for reinforcements in a bid to stave off the threat of relegation from the Premier League.

The club's new owners - led by Saudi Arabia's Public Investment Fund - have given Howe their backing this window and have made a statement signing in landing Trippier from LaLiga champions Atletico.
