Celtic are reportedly exploring the possibility of bringing Kieran Tierney back to the club on loan from Arsenal in January, with the intention of securing a pre-contract return for the former captain.
Celtic are reportedly considering bringing Kieran Tierney back on loan from Arsenal in January as well as agreeing a pre-contract return. Tierney has been informed by the Premier League club that they won't be exercising the option in his contract, making him a free agent at the season's end. Record Sport understands that Brendan Rodgers will try to secure an emotional return for the boyhood Celtic fan to his former club.
The 27-year-old made his first-team return on Thursday night, starting on the left wing in the Carabao Cup quarter-final victory over Crystal Palace, but appears unlikely to receive significant playing time under Mikel Arteta. Sky Sports reports that the Gunners will 'consider' offers, anticipating 'a number of clubs across Europe' to be interested, including the Premiership leaders. Oddsmakers favor a dream comeback to Glasgow's east end, while interest from the English top flight is also expected. Instant Casino states that the defender is now priced 6/4 to return to the club where he made his breakthrough and became captain at just 19. Leicester follows in the market at 4/1, with Everton a 5/1 shot. Another potential signing could be Sondre Ørjasæter, with reports suggesting that Celtic are tracking the 21-year-old ahead of the January window. The Sarpsborg star has reportedly been 'closely followed' by Celtic and RB Salzburg in recent months. However, the Norwegian club appears uninterested in selling the highly-rated winger this winter. Nettavisen reports that the club 'have no desire to sell this winter.' If the Scottish champions can convince Sarpsborg to part ways with Ørjasæter, it could signal the end for Luis Palma. The Honduran winger has struggled for playing time this season and hasn't made a first-team appearance since the clash with Dundee at the end of October
