Kieran Tierney urged to dump Arsenal for Newcastle United in summer transfer window

Arsenal full-back Kieran Tierney has been urged to ditch Arsenal for Newcastle United in the upcoming summer transfer window by former Celtic star Alan Stubbs.

Oleksandr Zinchenko has quickly become Mikel Arteta's preferred choice at left-back for Arsenal due to the former Manchester City man's ability to play in a multitude of positions. The Ukrainian is often seen in midfield during matches for the Gunners and has been crucial in unlocking stubborn defences this term for the league leaders.

Tierney's absence from the side has led to increased speculation that the Scot will be on the move this summer, but Arsenal will not be willing to let someone of his quality go for nothing. Newcastle's financial power has seen them heavily linked with a move for the Gunner as it is thought that the North London club are demanding a fee in the region of £30-40million.
