Arsenal defender Kieran Tierney should be back sooner rather than later, according to David Ornstein of the Athletic.

Tierney’s injury may actually just simply be down to fatigue, rather than something more sinister.

The Arsenal full-back had to miss out on playing at the weekend, as the Gunners were beaten by Aston Villa.

However, he should return to fitness in the near future – which will be a major boost to Mikel Arteta’s side.

Cedric has covered Tierney at left-back in his absence, but the former Southampton man didn’t look entirely comfortable against Villa.

Cedric was partly at fault for the goal Arsenal conceded, as he gave possession away cheaply.

And there is no doubting that Tierney is an upgrade on the 29-year-old when he is available.

Arsenal’s next game comes against Leeds United on Sunday.
