Wolves' new signing Kieran Trippier has stated that he is ready to face the challenges of the new season and hopes to use his extensive experience to help the team achieve its goal of returning to the Premier League. Since completing the transfer, the defender has trained with his teammates for about two and a half weeks, during which time he also traveled with the team to Portugal for pre-season preparations.
Next, Kieran Trippier is expected to make his debut for Wolves in their preseason friendly against Maidenhead United, officially facing the home fans. This match will also be manager Cesar Peschoto's first public friendly since taking charge of the team.
Looking ahead to the new season, Kieran Trippier expressed his expectations, saying, "I am very excited to join this club. Although I am no longer young, I still crave to win honors and hope to use my abilities to help the team achieve its goal of returning from the Championship to the Premier League."
“We need to focus on every game and move step by step toward our goal. The new season is destined to be challenging and full of tests. I have played in the Championship many times in the past and am very familiar with the intensity of the competition and the environment here. After joining the team, I hope to be able to help everyone in the games, in daily training, and in the dressing room.”
When asked about his desired role on the team, Kieran Trippier said, "This has always been my way of playing. As I gain experience and reach this stage of my career, I always hold myself to high standards, and I also inspire my teammates because we all know the new season will be challenging."
“In daily training, I will try my best to create a positive team atmosphere and proactively offer support and advice to my teammates. I have always believed that communication is very important, and I hope to use my experience to help the team improve, especially by providing more assistance in the development of young players.”
When discussing the new head coach, Cesar Pesciotto, Kieran Trippier gave him a positive review: "It's invaluable for a player to be exposed to the tactical philosophies of different coaches throughout their career. He's a coach with high standards and strict requirements, which is exactly the coaching style I like."
“We are gradually understanding his tactical philosophy every day, including his requirements for my playing style and the pattern that the team should adopt when attacking as a whole. He wants us to maintain high-pressure pressing and show more proactive team football. I think this style of play is very suitable for the club’s development.”
“I’m currently in good physical and mental shape. The preseason preparation phase not only helps players gradually get into the rhythm of the game, but it’s also an important process for new members and the coaching staff to get to know each other. Although the training intensity is very high, this experience is very valuable for me as someone who has just joined the team. Fortunately, I already knew some of the players on the team before, and they have all given me a lot of help. I feel very comfortable in the atmosphere of the whole team.”
"The team's current training level is very high, and the overall pace is very fast , which meets the head coach's requirements for us. There may be new players joining in the future, but the most important thing at this stage is to focus on the team and training. I enjoy the process of improving together with everyone every day."
"The coach has very high standards for the team. He requires every player to maintain 100% focus and commitment. This preseason preparation may be one of the most challenging experiences of my career, but this training method allows us to understand his tactical ideas more deeply and adapt to different game situations. He is an excellent and very disciplined head coach, and I look forward to a full and exciting season under his guidance."
“Choosing to train in high temperatures is to prepare for the immense challenges of a long Championship season. My teammates have performed exceptionally well in training, and the manager has high expectations for physical condition and match intensity. Fortunately, I have worked with coaches of a similar style in my past career, so I can understand his thinking very well.”
Finally, Kieran Trippier spoke about his integration into Wolves. He said, "Before deciding to join, I spoke with some players who had previously played here, as well as people who knew the club. I also knew some members of the team beforehand, which helped me adapt to the new environment more quickly."
"The preseason training camp provided the team with plenty of opportunities to get to know each other and build chemistry. We trained and communicated together every day, which helped us get to know each other better. Since arriving here, I have clearly felt the cohesion of the team. My teammates have given me a lot of enthusiasm and support, which made me feel a sense of belonging very quickly. Now, I am looking forward to wearing the Wolves jersey as soon as possible and facing new challenges together with everyone."
