Kieran Tierney has opened up on his first conversation with Brendan Rodgers at Celtic as he told him NOT to sign for Arsenal.
The Hoops diehard and fans' favourite eventually made the move to the Emirates for a huge fee in 2019 - but he could have ended up at his current club even earlier. However, the former Liverpool boss made his pitch as he spoke about making the Scotland international a senior pro and getting lots of games under his belt for his boyhood club.
Rodgers - now in charge at Leicester City - also made a massive first impression on the Celtic squad as he arrived. Tierney admits just that first meeting convinced him something special was in wait for the Hoops while Scottish football also went on the up massively due to his high profile arrival in Glasgow's east end.
