Trippier joined the Colchoneros from Tottenham in the summer of 2019 and has since attained a regular spot in the playing 11. With Atletico currently flying high in La Liga this season, the 29-year-old has had a big role to play in it, registering two assists in the recent fixture against Real Valladolid.
