The interest from Arsenal for Kieran Tierney is well documented at this point. The Gunners have had two official attempts to sign the Celtic star knocked back this summer and since the last bid, it’s all gone quiet.
This is a good thing for Celtic fans who want to see their star player stay at the club for the next year or two but you have to believe Arsenal will try one last time before the Premier League window shuts.
The second bid for Tierney was littered with add-ons and according to Sky Sports reporter Kaveh Solhekol, the criteria for one of those add-ins was something Celtic weren’t going to entertain.
Arsenal £25m offer for Celtic left back Kieran Tierney includes too many add ons dependent on Arsenal qualifying for Champions League. Celtic not convinced they’re realistic. Want more cash up front

If that truly is the case then Arsenal are well and truly howling at the moon with regards to this transfer.
With the London club seemingly so far behind the club’s in front of them, there’s a good chance they will struggle to achieve this.
Celtic want guaranteed money for the player and will not be forced to sell their star defender short on the possibility of more cash in the future.
