Celtic left-back Kieran Tierney is wanted by Leicester City and Arsenal, with Neil Lennon’s side facing a massive fight to keep him now.

According to a report in the Daily Express, Arsenal will not be drawn into a bidding war for Celtic’s Kieran Tierney.

Arsenal have already seen one bid for Tierney rejected for Celtic, and are said to only be willing to pay £18 million for the left-back at most.

Napoli and Leicester City are now watching Celtic’s next move carefully, as they could come in to swoop for the Scotland international.

If Celtic do show a willingness to sell to Arsenal then the pair could also come in for him.

That would be bad news for the Gunners, as they do not want to overspend on Tierney, even though Unai Emery would like the Celtic man in his squad.

Celtic really do appear to be facing the prospect of having to lose Tierney this summer.

The left-back is one of the Bhoys key stars, and is a hugely popular figure at Parkhead.

However, this is the closest he has ever been to leaving Celtic, and his departure would be a huge blow to Neil Lennon’s side.
