Napoli, Atletico Madrid target Trippier: I'd prefer England stay

Tottenham fullback Kieran Trippier says his priority would be to remain in England as he considers leaving the Champions League runners up.

Trippier has been heavily linked with a move to Serie A side Napoli, while Atletico Madrid are also reported to be keen on him.

The 28-year-old, who was in tears following the full-time whistle in Madrid and made an effort to thank the fans, is keen to keep playing in England.

"I want to stay in England. But what can you do?" he added. "I'll see what happens and what the club wants, most importantly.

"I give everything for this club - training sessions, games - so we'll see what happens in pre-season."
