      Bayern are keen to sign him to add to their English and former Tottenham contingent of Harry Kane and Eric Dier.
      But the Bundesliga side have suffered a blow in their pursuit of Trippier as Newcastle are refusing to let him go for under £13m.
      The signing of Trippier could prove pricey with the 33-year-old reportedly demanding a £200,000-a-week salary.
      He also supposedly wants a contract until 2025.

      And reports from Bild now claim that Bayern only want him on loan.
      Newcastle are desperate to keep hold of Trippier and are determined to not let him go this month.
      They are set to reject any loan offers and will only sell if Bayern’s bid is deemed too good to refuse.
      Trippier is supposedly open to joining Thomas Tuchel’s men and has cut short a holiday in New York to discuss a transfer.

      However, Bayern could turn their attention to PSG star Nordi Mukiele.

      He has earned 46 England caps in his career. More

      Bayern Munich to open Kieran Trippier transfer talks with Newcastle TODAY but Toon could demand swap deal

      But the German giants want a right-back and are keen to reunite Trippier with ex-Spurs team-mates Harry Kane and Eric Dier.
      Toon CEO Darren Eales said last week every player has a price as they navigate FFP rules so a big cash offer could make it happen.
      The former Atalanta chief said: “On any player, at any time, it depends on circumstances.
      “It’s difficult to hypothesise but, if we’re offered £1bn for one of those players, then no one could argue against that making sense.

      “Any decision we make will always be against the backdrop of the medium to long-term benefit for the club.
      “It’s difficult to say specifically on certain players.
      “But I can say that, if we’re going to get to where we want to get to, at times it is necessary to trade your players.
      “Whether that is because of the contract length of the player in question, the offer is too good to refuse, you need to reload in certain areas.

      “But all of this could make sense to trade that player.
      “It is counter-intuitive and part of the inherent system of PSR that there is an incentive to trade your players if you want to re-invest, by the nature of the boundaries.”
      Bayern could try to sweeten any potential deal for Trippier by using the versatile Joshua Kimmich as a makeweight.
      Magpies boss Eddie Howe is understood to be keen on strengthening his midfield this month and is said to be a big admirer of Kimmich.
      Germany international Kimmich can also play at right-back, meaning he could temporarily fill the void left by Trippier.
      Bayern are currently in talks with Paris Saint-Germain over a loan for right-back Nordi Mukiele but boss Thomas Tuchel also likes Trippier.
      It would be a huge blow for an out-of-form Toon side who are five points off the top six in the Prem.
      Trippier starred for the Geordies after signing from Atletico Madrid in 2022 but his form dipped badly this winter.

      His deal expires next year but boss Eddie Howe wants to keep him.
      Tino Livramento’s form suggests he can be the long-term replacement, with Emil Krafth another reliable right-back for the Magpies.

      The deal is understood to be valued at around £21.5million plus add-ons.
      Spurs outcast Djed Spence will move the other way as he will join Genoa on loan for the remainder of the season.
      Dragusin had been linked with a move to Bayern Munich, but has chosen the to join Tottenham instead.
      He’s reported to have turned down double the money from the Bavarians in favour of making the move to the Premier League.

      Dragusin is said to have left his agent in disbelief after making the decision, but is keen to progress his career over opting for financial benefits.
      The star’s agent, Florin Manea, admitted that an offer from Bayern was submitted while they were on the way to the airport.
      He told Romanian news outlet GSP: “We stopped dead. We were on our way to the airport. I said we have to think carefully and evaluate.
      “Bayern are one of the biggest clubs. I can’t believe I turned Bayern down! But that’s the decision.

      “I took it with Radu and his family. I informed Bayern that this was the decision, that they came in at the last minute and that it was difficult to change our decision.
      “Maybe in the future, we will get there. We are a little overwhelmed.
      “To turn down Bayern… But it was ultimately what Radu and his family wanted.
      “He is happy. We’re going to Tottenham.”
      Menea revealed that the offer was substantially more than he is set to receive at Spurs.
      He said: “There was quite a difference [between offers]. Almost half as much, if not more, but never mind the amounts.
      “They were never a priority. We always choose the steps we think are right. I think he weighed that he always wanted to get to the Premier League.”
      Spurs welcomed their new man to the club on social media and revealed he will wear the number six on the back of his shirt.
      Dragusin is the second new arrival to Ange Postecoglou’s side this month after they sealed a deal for Chelsea flop Timo Werner on loan from RB Leipzig.

      Dier has hardly featured under Ange Postecoglou, starting just once this season.
      With Tottenham beating Bayern to a deal for Genoa defender Radu Dragusin on Wednesday, Dier could be on the verge of sealing a Spurs exit.
      According to Sky Sport Germany, Dier has emerged as one of the Bundesliga giants’ top targets.
      He adds that Bayern would pay £3.5million for the out-of-favour ace.

      And that Dier could agree an 18 month contract, with Bayern possessing an option to extend by a further 12 months.
      The defender joined Tottenham from Sporting Lisbon in a £4m deal in 2014.
      He has gone on to play 364 times for Spurs, including in the 2019 Champions League final.
      During his time at Tottenham he has also earned 49 England caps, going to the 2018 and 2022 World Cups.

      Upon joining Spurs, Werner said: “One-and-a-half years ago I left England, I watched the Premier League, not too much to follow every single club but Tottenham was always a club which I watched.
      “When I joined my old club, I said I wanted to be a winner and I wanted to win titles at the end, and in the end we won the Champions League so I think it shouldn’t be too bad to say that I’ve come here to also win titles and to win something.”

      But German champions Bayern then made an improved offer of £26.7m as they looked to steal him away from Ange Postecoglou.
      However Spurs have now reached “total agreement” with Genoa as their offer was accepted overnight.
      Dragusin is expected to travel to London on Wednesday morning to complete the move.
      The deal is worth £21.5m plus £4.3m in add-ons.

      As part of the transfer, right-back Spence will join Genoa until the end of the season after his Leeds loan was terminated.
      Tottenham will still pay Spence’s wages after the player was convinced of the temporary move to Serie A.
      It came after Leeds boss Daniel Farke was unimpressed with the 23-year-old’s attitude, and it is understood there was little interest from Championship clubs borrowing Spence this month.
      The loan to Genoa includes an option to sign the wing-back permanently for £8.6m in the summer.

      Should Dragusin complete his move before midday on Friday he could make his Premier League debut at Manchester United on Sunday.
      It is a huge coup for Postecoglou who always prioritised a new centre-back in this window to bolster his options.
      Full-backs Ben Davies and Emerson Royal have had to play in the middle of defence while first-choice pair Micky van de Ven and Cristian Romero have been injured in recent months.
      Ashley Phillips, 18, who signed from Blackburn for £2m in the summer, was deemed not ready and loaned out to Plymouth earlier this week.
      And Eric Dier is set to join Bayern Munich after a decade in North London.
      Dragusin made his professional debut for Juventus in 2020 but struggled to establish himself as a regular first team player.
      He was subsequently loaned out three times to Sampdoria, Salernitana and Genoa.
      The defender completed a permanent move to Genoa in January of last year and has made 62 appearances.
      Dragusin will be Tottenham’s second signing of the January window after they brought Timo Werner in on loan from RB Leipzig. More

      Dier has been out of favour at Tottenham this season.

      Dier has played 364 times for Spurs since signing from Sporting Lisbon for £4million in 2014.
      He played regularly as the North Londoners contended for the Premier League title under Mauricio Pochettino, and featured in the 2019 Champions League final.
