Arsenal boss Mikel Arteta has issued a strong message to Kieran Tierney to “challenge the situation” he finds himself in at the Emirates Stadium.
The former Celtic defender has been linked with a move away from North London this summer with Newcastle thought to be interested in a £30m for his services. It has been suggested that Tierney would be open to a move away from Arsenal in order to get more first-team football.
The 25-year-old has made just four Premier League starts this term after falling behind summer signing Oleksandr Zinchenko. That is compared to the 22 he made last season; having seen the closing stages of his campaign disrupted with a knee injury.
