Arsenal are not giving up in their hopes of signing former Tottenham right-back Kieran Trippier from Atletico Madrid.

The defender is a key member of Diego Simeone's team, but wants to come home to England to be closer to his family.

According to The Sun, both Arsenal and Manchester United have discovered that Atleti will only accept the full £34 million release clause for Trippier.

Given that he is 30, Arsenal may feel Atleti need to lower their asking price for Trippier.

The Gunners are under pressure to make signings after a horror start of two successive defeats in the Premier League to Brentford and Chelsea.
