Arsenal star making plans to move to Newcastle United. Gunners left-back According to The Mirror, Kieran Tierney may decide to leave London and join Newcastle United in the summer. The Scottish full-back is now keen on moving to Tyneside to play for Eddie Howe’s team after falling down the pecking order under Mikel Arteta.
In August 2019, Tierney moved to the Gunners from Celtic in a £25 million agreement. As a result of his 88 appearances in his first three seasons, he gradually developed into a key member of the squad. He has, however, grown more and more dissatisfied with his position at the Emirates this season.
Tierney is now Arsenal’s backup after Oleksandr Zinchenko, who cost Manchester City £32 last summer, joined the team this season. Zinchenko has been a significant improvement at the position and has contributed significantly to the Gunners’ championship challenge.
Tierney, who sustained a knee injury and only recently made a comeback, has been primarily allowed to sit on the sideline. As a result, the Scotsman is keen to leave North London, and Newcastle has emerged as one of the player’s top admirers.
Dan Burn has been primarily Eddie Howe’s left-back choice this season. Although he has primarily been successful for the Magpies, the center-back spot is not his natural position. As a result, Howe would be keen to sign Tierney, who has considerable Premier League expertise. Newcastle thinks the signing of the Arsenal player will mark the beginning of the team’s rebuild, which will be crucial to their own title push.
Along with Tierney, the Tyneside team has shown interest in Brighton & Hove Albion attacker Evan Ferguson and Leicester City midfielder James Maddison.
According to reports, Newcastle United will join Arsenal in its chase of 18-year-old right-back Ivan Fresneda. This season, Real Valladolid’s full-back made his team and won over admirers across Europe.
According to The Evening Standard, Juventus and Borussia Dortmund of the Bundesliga are also considering signing Fresneda. The Spaniard fits the team’s philosophy of signing young players and has allegedly been on the north London side’s radar for a while. In the January transfer window, they were just about to finalize a deal for him, but the player decided to finish the season in Spain.
