Newcastle United v Paris St-Germain: Kieran Trippier jokes his son wants to walk out with Kylian Mbappe

Kieran Trippier is hoping to keep Kylian Mbappe quiet when Paris St-Germain face Newcastle on Wednesday - even if it upsets his young son.

PSG visit St James' Park in the Champions League group stage but Trippier's son Jacob is only interested in the France forward.

"He's obsessed with him, always watching his clips on YouTube," said 33-year-old Trippier.

The defender joked his son wanted to walk out with Mbappe instead of him.

"I wasn't really happy with that," Trippier added. I said to him, 'If you get to walk out with Mbappe, you don't look at me in the tunnel'.
