Kieran Tierney to reject other suitors to seal stunning Celtic return | OneFootball

Kieran Tierney would reject transfer interest in order to seal a stunning return to Celtic. The Scottish Champions have been linked with a return for Tierney, who will be available on a free transfer next summer.

Arsenal have reportedly decided against triggering a one year contract extension for the Scotland Internationalist, meaning he will leave the club in the coming months. The 27-year-old could even sign a pre-contract as early as next month.

Now, Football Insider are reporting that Tierney will reject interest from other clubs to pave a way back to Celtic.

However, it is reported that a major stumbling block towards any deal will be the wages that Tierney has been on with Arsenal. Tierney is believed to be on in excess of £120k-per-week, which means that he will have to take a substantial pay cut to facilitate a move to Celtic.

Tierney will likely be subject to significant transfer interest from around England and even Europe. Although, his injury history may persuade him to take a step that will see him reunite with a manager that knows him well and is able to manage him through injuries. Celtic have Greg Taylor and Alex Valle in the left back position but given their deals expire this summer, Celtic will require  to pay attention to this position imminently.
