Kieran Trippier withdraws from England squad for North Macedonia clash due to personal matter

Posted : 19 November 2023
Newcastle United's Kieran Trippier has opted out of the England squad scheduled to face North Macedonia on Monday due to what has been described as a "personal matter."
 
The 33-year-old defender, who played the full duration in England's 2-0 victory over Malta on Friday, has returned home, according to a confirmation from Newcastle.
 
England, having already secured qualification for Euro 2024 as Group C winners with 19 points from seven games, will navigate their final Euro 2024 qualifier without Trippier's presence.
 
The withdrawal comes as England manager Gareth Southgate adjusts his squad for the upcoming match. Trippier's absence is notable, given his consistent contributions in the 2-0 win against Malta.
 
The experienced defender's departure from the England camp raises questions about his availability for Newcastle's next fixture against Chelsea on November 25. While the details of the personal matter remain undisclosed, Trippier's decision reflects the unpredictable nature of player availability for national teams due to various factors.
 
As England prepares for the North Macedonia encounter, Trippier's absence emphasizes the challenges faced by national teams in maintaining squad continuity amid unexpected developments.
 
The dynamic nature of international football necessitates flexibility in squad management, with unforeseen personal matters occasionally impacting player participation in crucial matches. Trippier's departure, albeit for personal reasons, adds an element of uncertainty to England's defensive lineup as they conclude their Euro 2024 qualifying campaign.
