Pep Guardiola 'adds' Arsenal star to Manchester City's transfer shortlist

Manchester City boss Pep Guardiola is interested in signing Arsenal defender Kieran Tierney if recent reports are to be believed.

Tierney joined the Gunners back in the summer of 2019, signing from Scottish giants Celtic for a reported £25million. Despite some injury woes, he has been a solid addition to the north Londoners' backline, consistently performing at left-back as well as a left-sided centre-back in a back three during the club's 2020 FA Cup triumph.

However, The Scotsman have now reported that the City are keeping tabs on him as they look to bolster their defence this summer after winning their fourth Premier League title in the last five years. Citizens manager Guardiola is said to be a fan of the tough-tackling fullback and the Spaniard has reportedly identified Tierney as a target if he is unable to sign Brighton's Marc Cucurella in the coming weeks.
