Wolves involved as Atletico Madrid prepare to lose Trippier to Man Utd

Atletico Madrid are fighting to keep Kieran Trippier from joining Manchester United.

Atletico are determined to keep hold of Trippier - but have drawn up a two-man transfer shortlist should United sign him, says the Mirror.

The England international has been the source of constant speculation after it emerged he was a target for Ole Gunnar Solskjaer.

They are said to be holding out for £30million for Trippier - some £15m more than United had hoped to snag him for.

Santiago Arias and Sime Vrsaljko are both internal candidates to fill the right-back berth, while Nelson Semedo (Wolves) and Giovanni Di Lorenzo (Napoli) are on their radar to bring in as replacements.
