Tierney is one of the best young left-backs in entire Europe and has established himself as an important player in the current Celtic team.

The 19-year-old defender scored three goals in 71 appearances in all competitions for Celtic so far in his career.

Chelsea are not the only club who are (reportedly) interested in Tierney. Newcastle United, Arsenal and Liverpool also want the Scotland international in the summer, according to The Daily Star (click here to read more).

Celtic are one of the biggest clubs in the world, but moving to Chelsea, who are on the verge of winning the Premier League title this season, would be tempting for any footballer.
