Real Madrid are interested in signing Kieran Tierney from Mikel Arteta’s Arsenal in the summer transfer window, according to 90min.
The report has claimed that Madrid have been keeping close tabs on Arsenal left-back Tierney and have been very impressed by the former Celtic defender.
Madrid watched the 24-year-old left-back in January and February and are considering a bid for him in the summer transfer window.
The La Liga club’s chief scout Juni Calafat has reportedly watched Tierney in action personally.
Could Kieran Tierney leave Arsenal for Real Madrid?
In our view, Arsenal should be fearful about this report regarding Tierney and Madrid.
Yes, Arsenal are a big club and are a global brand, but Madrid are one of the most historic and icon clubs in the world.
Madrid are the pinnacle for many footballers, and a move to the Santiago Bernabeu could be very appealing for Tierney.
After all, Madrid regularly compete for major trophies and are arguably the biggest club in the world.
Carlo Ancelotti’s side could win La Liga and the Champions League this season.
However, if Arsenal do finish in the Premier League top four, then they would be in a position to ask a lot for Tierney – if indeed Madrid come calling.
