Kieran Trippier looks to be headed to La Liga.
The BBC's David Ornstein reports the Tottenham Hotspur and England right-back is on the verge of joining Atletico Madrid in a £20 million move.
Trippier, 28, made 38 appearances for Spurs last season, his fourth with the club. His final appearance in a Spurs shirt came in the club's 2-0 loss to Liverpool in the Champions League Final.
A product of the Manchester City youth academy, Trippier will represent the fifth major arrival for Diego Simeone's club this offseason, joining Portugal midfielder Joao Felix, centre-back Felipe from Porto, Brazilian left-back Renan Lodi and midfielder Marcos Llorente.
France star Antoine Griezmann and defensive midfielder Rodri left the club this summer, joining Barcelona and City respectively.
