Manchester United has been associated with England international Kieran Trippier for some time, and he is once again in the spotlight.
Last month, Italian newspaper La Gazzetta Dello Sport said that the Red Devils attempted to sign the Tottenham Hotspur star with a 20 million euro bid, which was turned down, then they increased their offer to 25 million euros.
DON'T MISS:
According to the latest reports out of Spain, Atletico Madrid will want full payment of his 40 million euro (£34 million) release clause before allowing him to go this summer.
According to Marca, the 30-year-old defender, who played a major role in helping Rojiblancos win La Liga last season, is interested in joining United, but the Spanish club is making it tough for him.
The Colchoneros are said to have refused to offer Trippier a new contract or accept a lesser compensation for his departure. Man United will only be able to recruit him if they pay £34 million.
The veteran defender has played in over 100 Premier League games and has the quality and expertise to help United improve their right back position.

Even The Mirror claimed last month that the ex-Burnley man is interested in joining the Red Devils. Is it worth it for Ole to sign him?
If the price is £34 million, I believe we should pass on attracting Trippier, who will turn 31 in September. With Wan-Bissaka, Solskjaer already has a top RB on his hands.
Instead of recruiting an older player to cover for AWB, he will have to rely on Diogo Dalot, a 22-year-old who had a good season with AC Milan (on loan) last season and even made two appearances for Portugal at the European Championships. What are your thoughts?
