KIERAN TRIPPIER has challenged Tino Livramento to nick his job for Newcastle and England.
The Toon right-back is out of the trip to Chelsea tonight with a calf injury and Livramento is set for at least a two-game run in the team.
The former Southampton star has had to be patient since signing for £30m last summer.
But he is ready to step up in the medium term, and even as soon as this summer if Bayern Munich renew their January interest in Trippier.
Asked about Livramento’s ability to succeed him for club and country, Trippier said: “Of course.
“If you ask Tino, that will be his aim and if you ask me, I’d want every player to feel the same way.
“If you’re not in the team, your aim and ambition should be to try to get into the team.
