Simeone and Trippier would stay behind for an HOUR AND A HALF after Atletico Madrid training

Kieran Trippier has revealed that Atletico Madrid manager Diego Simeone would stay and work with him individually for 90 minutes after training sessions to help him flourish in Spain.

Trippier raised a few eyebrows when he left Tottenham for the Spanish giants in a deal worth £20million in the summer of 2019.

But his move to the Spanish capital was successful. He made 86 appearances in all competitions for Atletico and won the LaLiga title last season.

Trippier, who moved back to England earlier this month when he joined Newcastle for £12m, has opened up on what it's like to play for the Argentine boss, describing his work ethic as 'relentless'.
