KIERAN TIERNEY showed just how good he is again at Wembley on Friday night when the former Celtic star came back in from injury and helped put on a masterclass.
The Hoops academy bhoy is one of the best left-backs in the Premier League and since his move to Arsenal, he’s proved all the doubters wrong. The people who claim Scottish football doesn’t provide top talent have certainly been silenced.
Kieran has carved out a fantastic career for himself on his own merit and according to reports, Arsenal are about to hand the player a massive five-year contract where the defender will be earning eye-watering amounts of cash.
SunSport report the Celtic supporter stands to earn £110kpw with the London club.
Arsenal will be wary of potential suitors for Kieran this summer and beyond, locking him down on a major contract provides them with some comfort. Even if Kieran doesn’t stay for the duration of the new deal, Arsenal would be able to charge top dollar for their defender.
A major deal down the line to another club would see Celtic pocket more money for their former youth product.
