Tierney is synonymous with success at Celtic having come through the youth ranks before establishing himself in Ronny Deila’s first team. The full-back became a mainstay under Brendan during his first spell before making the £25m move to Arsenal in the summer of 2019.
Celtic will look to strengthen at left back in the summer with Greg Taylor and Alex Valle likely to leave the club. Valle’s loan deal expires while Taylor’s contract is due to expire with no renewal in sight. Both struggled at Ibrox yesterday and it will be an area that the manager will see as a priority to strengthen.
