Exclusive: Six clubs chasing Arsenal ace who could still have a future in North London

After being left off of the squad list for Arsenal’s recent pre-season game against Bayer Leverkusen, it was felt that Kieran Tierney no longer had a future in North London, and though six clubs are chasing his signature, he could still stay with the Gunners.

The Gunners are certainly aware that offers for the player will come in before the summer transfer window closes, however, CaughtOffside sources understand that Arsenal have not yet made a definite decision regarding Tierney’s future.

Indeed, sources indicate that Mikel Arteta wants Tierney to stay with the team and play an important role next season.

Six clubs chasing Arsenal’s Kieran Tierney

The issue and sticking point to that precise scenario occurring is Tierney’s desire to leave during the window due to his lack of regular first-team appearances to date.

At this moment, CaughtOffside sources have noted confirmed interest in the player from his former club Celtic, as well as Premier League rivals Newcastle United and Aston Villa, and Spanish top-flight sides Girona, Sevilla and Valencia.

Kieran Tierney's future at Arsenal is in doubt with six clubs chasing his signature.

With only a week to go until the transfer window closes, if any of the aforementioned clubs want to make good on their interest, then they need to start thinking about opening negotiations quickly.

Should Arteta accept that there’s no persuading the player to extend his time in North London, it’s believed that an offer of around £25m/£30m will be considered suitable.

The cost saving made should Tierney move on, may also allow Arsenal to enter the market at a late stage to beef up their squad with one or two more purchases.

For now, the player and Arsenal are just sitting and waiting for the phone to ring.
