JAKARTA - Defender Kieran Trippier left the England national team because of his 'personal problems'. He was also absent from England against North Macedonia in the last match of Group C qualifying for Euro 2024 at the Toee Proeski Arena Stadium, Tuesday, November 21 in the morning WIB. Trippier played full time England won 2-0 over Malta, Saturday, November 18 in the morning WIB. But he then left the national team for personal reasons.

There is no mention of the reason for the Newcastle United defender to leave the national team. The club also confirmed that the players immediately returned home.

With Trippier's departure, his position was replaced by Kyle Walker or Rico Lewis against North Macedonia.

Although there were those who replaced him, the departure of the defender who had played 46 times for the Three Lions made manager Gareth Southgate face a dilemma.

The reason is that England has lost a number of players such as Jude Bellingham, Levi Colwill, James Maddison, Lewis Dunk and Callum Wilson.

This gives Lewis, Cole Palmer and Ezri Konsa the opportunity to join the national team

England itself has qualified for the Euro 2024 finals by winning the group. Another ticket is contested by Italy and Ukraine.

Trippier is also not certain whether he will strengthen Newcastle against Chelsea in the English Premier League competition, Saturday, November 25, 2023.

After fighting the Blues, they faced Paris Saint-Germain in the Champions League.

Newcastle manager Eddie Howe hopes Trippier joins the club soon. This is related to the club's unfavorable condition following a number of injured players.

Trippier merupakan pilar pertahanan The Magpies dan berperan penting membawa tim kembali berlaga di Liga Champions. Dirinya kembali ke Inggris setelah bermain di Spanyol dengan memperkuat Atletico Madrid.
