England star Kieran Trippier ‘stitched up by mates at a Newcastle strip-club’ as £9,500 tab is put under his name after split from wife – despite him not being there!
Kieran Trippier has been ‘stitched up’ by a group of friends who spent close to £10,000 on a strip club bill – before putting the defender’s name on the tab.
Reports claim the Newcastle star was not present at the club – however his name still appeared on the bill, which included 76 £100 tokens for personal dances.
According to The Sun, the bill was a staggering £9,663 and was believed to have been racked up by Trippier’s friends who play for National League side Gateshead.
A source told the outlet: ‘Kieran has visited FYEO before but this bill was run up by some of the lads he knows at Gateshead. He wasn’t there.
‘This seems to be their idea of a joke on Kieran. Who knows who footed the bill.’
The Newcastle star was sidelined for his side’s trip to Arsenal on Sunday afternoon – which resulted in a 1-0 victory for the Gunners after a Declan Rice strike.

The bill was accrued at gentleman’s club ‘For Your Eyes Only’ – with £9,500 of the total tab coming from dance chips spent by the group.
There were also a large number of drinks that were seen on the receipt. It was printed at 4:36am earlier this month under the name ‘Tripps’, according to the report.
Though he wasn’t on the night out in question, the Newcastle full-back is no stranger to an evening out in town and was spotted at the Premier League Darts in March.
Eleven days on from beating Liverpool at Wembley to end Newcastle’s 70-year wait for a domestic trophy, several of the club’s players attended the event.
Dan Burn and Kieran Trippier were all smiles as they watched on, while Harvey Barnes and Matt Targett also appeared to be enjoying their evening.
Luke Littler was in sparkling form on the night, as he swept aside Stephen Bunting inside 10 minutes before beating Rob Cross 6-3 in his semi-final.
But Newcastle’s players were unable to inspire local hero Chris Dobey to victory against world No1 Luke Humphries.
At the end of 2024, it was reported that Trippier had split from wife and mother of three Charlotte – before she reportedly moved 200 miles across the country to start a new life with their children.
Trippier has endured a difficult campaign for the Magpies after struggling with injuries and falling out of favour with boss Eddie Howe.

The full-back has made 24 appearances in the league and has provided three assists

He has produced three assists in the league and is yet to score in the campaign.
The Magpies have just one league game remaining in the campaign and are in the driving seat to secure Champions League qualification.
Sitting third in the Premier League table, they are tied on points with Chelsea and Aston Villa, while being above Man City by just a point.
