Trippier is believed to have had a successful medical on Tuesday.
“Atletico Madrid and Tottenham Hotspur have come to an agreement for the transfer of Kieran Trippier,” Atletico confirmed on the club’s official website.

The England international joined the north Londoners in 2015 from Burnley, made over 100 appearances under manager Mauricio Pochettino, and represented England at the World Cup just 12 months ago.
Kieran Trippier is Atletico Madrid’s first English player in 95 years.
It has been a busy summer over at the Wanda Metropolitano with the arrival of Joao Felix and Marcos Llorente, as well as Brazilian Renan Lodi to compensate for the loss of Diego GoGodin who left for Inter Milan and Antoine Griezmann who made a controversial switch to Barcelona.
