The 34-year-old remains a key part of Eddie Howe<\/a>\u2019s squad but Trippier has recently been linked with a move to Monaco<\/a>.\u00a0<\/p>\n The French side have already signed former Premier League stars in Eric Dier and Paul Pogba this summer and are reportedly keen on the Toon defender too. <\/p>\n After a difficult second full season on Tyneside, Trippier returned to form towards the back end of the 2024\/25 campaign and proved brilliant as Newcastle won the Carabao Cup and qualified for the Champions League. <\/p>\n The former England star started for Newcastle against Aston Villa on Saturday as the Premier League<\/a> returned, but will face competition for his place now that Lewis Hall has returned to full fitness.\u00a0<\/p>\n Amid the recent transfer links, an update on his future has emerged.\u00a0<\/p>\n According to The Chronicle<\/a>, Trippier is remaining focused on Newcastle despite suggestions that Monaco are keen.\u00a0<\/p>\n Still, it\u2019s also added that the veteran is ideally looking for a two-year contract at this stage of his career. <\/p>\n Trippier\u2019s deal expires on Tyneside at the end of the season, and there is currently no update in regard to an extension. <\/p>\n The report adds that Howe does not want to lose Trippier, which is understandable given the impact he\u2019s had on the club since his arrival. <\/p>\n Kieran Trippier has been considering his options at Newcastle United <\/p>\n Back in July, it was revealed that Trippier was considering his options<\/a> about potentially leaving Newcastle.\u00a0<\/p>\n![\"Kieran](\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/GettyImages-2225975499-1024x683.jpg\")
