Kieran Tierney handed 'mighty tough' Newcastle warning if ex-Celtic star makes transfer from Arsenal

Kieran Tierney has been warned it would be 'mighty tough' to break into the Newcastle team.

The former Celtic star has been strongly linked with an exit from Arsenal this summer with Eddie Howe believed to be a massive fan of the Scotland international. They are heading into the riches of the Champions League after a top four finish and could move to bring in the defender on board as they look to add strength and depth to the ranks.

Tierney played second fiddle in North London last season with Oleksandr Zinchenko - a summer signing from Manchester City - the preferred option by Mikel Arteta. His minutes came mainly as cameo appearances from the bench and Dietmar Hamann has warned he could experience similar at the Toon Army if he makes the switch due to the form of Dan Burn with his height a key weapon at both ends of the park.
