Kieran Trippier, the 33-year-old Newcastle United full-back, has announced his retirement from international football after earning 54 caps for England. Trippier expressed that representing his country was 'one of the biggest honours of my life', having played in four major tournaments, including two World Cups and two European Championships. His notable achievements include scoring a memorable free-kick in the 2018 World Cup semi-final against Croatia and assisting in the Euro 2020 final. Trippier's announcement comes just before interim manager Lee Carsley is set to name his first squad for upcoming Nations League matches. He thanked former manager Gareth Southgate, his teammates, and the fans for their support throughout his international career. While he steps away from international duty, Trippier will continue to play at the club level.
