Kieran Trippier has Newcastle fans excited after joining as a high-profile transfer from Atletico Madrid, but supporters have taken the opportunity to poke fun at him after bizarrely pointing to the clubs sleeve sponsor, online travel agency Kayak, rather than the club crest following his official unveiling.
The 31-year-old became Newcastle United's first signing under their Saudi-backed owners in a £12million deal from Atletico Madrid.
Trippier agreed terms on a two-and-a-half-year deal with option of a further year, following two-and-a-half years in the Spanish capital with the LaLiga giants.
