Tierney will become a Celtic player again this summer as he joins the club on a free transfer. The club confirmed Tierney would be back at Parkhead as a player in July 2025.
Arsenal boss said of the departing Tierney: “He said it yesterday, I’m going to score in my last Arsenal match, and he’s done it!
“So, credit to him, a special thank you to him. He’s been part of the journey, and he’s won with me. It’s true that he went to Sociedad for a few months, but it’s been a joy to work with him, a really special character. We wish him and his family all the very best.
“The doors of this club are open for him – he’s someone very, very liked at the club, in the dressing room, and we want to wish him the best.”
