Alan Shearer and Bruno Guimaraes were among those to lead the congratulations for Kieran Trippier's new deal at St. James' Park. The England international has been a standout performer since arriving at St. James' Park last January.
The former Atletico Madrid defender was the first player to take the plunge and join struggling Newcastle United in their fight against relegation. Trippier has been a huge part in the transformation from relegation favourites into European contenders.
Shearer took to social media to applaud Trippier's new deal, while his fellow team mates took to Instagram to send their messages of support.
