Kieran Trippier is set to make a shock move away from Newcastle United this summer, according to a report.
Trippier appears to have played his last game for Newcastle as a summer transfer is on the cards despite the window closing in the UK.
Teams in England had until 11pm on Friday to complete their dealings as Trippier stayed put at Newcastle amid intense speculation.
But the transfer window in Turkey is open for two more weeks, with a report linking the 33-year-old with a switch to the Super Lig.

According to a report, Trippier has 'agreed personal terms' with Eyupspor, who are managed by former Barcelona star Arda Turan.
The report does not indicate whether any transfer would be a permanent sale or a loan, but it claims the player is in dialogue with Newcastle over a potential deal.
On X, Turkish journalist Resat Can Ozbudak wrote: "Kieran Trippier has reached an agreement with Eyupspor. The football player is trying to get his annual income from Newcastle. Eyupspor is waiting for these talks."
Trippier, who recently retired from international duty with England, joined Newcastle in January 2022 from Atletico Madrid.
He's made 94 appearances across all competitions for the club and has played two games this season.
If the right-back moves to the Istanbul-based outfit, then he'd be the second English player on the club's books as they boast former Liverpool midfielder Jonjo Shelvey, who signed for them last month.
It would also be the second time he's played abroad, having spent two-and-a-half years in Spain with Atletico.
