Arsenal star Kieran Tierney has been tipped to make a return to Celtic this summer, alongside a potential move to Newcastle in the transfer window. The full-back's future is uncertain in the weeks ahead, with plenty of interest shown in a deal that could see him leave the Gunners.
It comes after a season that saw limited minutes for the Scotland international, with the signing of Oleksandr Zinchenko changing the role of the left-back in Mikel Arteta's system. There was greater emphasis on drifting into midfield, looking to circulate possession and keep it in the opposition half.
While those traits suited the incoming Zinchenko, they didn't quite match the skillset of Tierney, where his strength lies in overlapping and attacking on the flank. The defender played just 1,458 minutes across four different competitions for the Gunners, a huge shift from his usual game time when fit.
