Alan McInally believes Kieran Tierney will be considering his future at Arsenal this summer
“Kieran Tierney will be thinking about his future now, I’d love to see him back at Celtic but I don’t think that would be much of a thought for him the way his career is going. I think the way he has played, even in Spain, there will be lots of takers for him if Arsenal don’t want him,” he said via Betfair.
“With the experience he has had playing in Europe, which is something I had, it’s hard to give it up. Playing abroad is a great table to be at, going to play in all different places, learning a new language and different cultures. You don’t just go and play abroad for one year and not want a bit more of it.
“IIf he’s going to have a serious conversation with Arteta about his Arsenal future, then maybe a return to Celtic could be an option, but I just don’t know if Kieran Tierney would want to go back at this moment in time in his career when there might be other things available.
“He’s such an important player for Scotland, it will weaken us not having him, but with a bit of luck and the spirit in the team, that will be enough for us to get a result.”
