Tierney was on loan at Real Sociedad this season, but they decided not to keep him because of his persistent ιnjury issues, therefore he appears to be leaving Arsenal in the summer.
Tierney’s team had the worst possible start as they were beaten 5-1 by Germany in the opening game, but a great campaign with Scotland may have raised transfer interest in him and given him confidence.Tierney was on loan with Real Sociedad this season, but his ongoing ιnjury problems caused them to decide not to keep him, therefore it looks like he will be departing Arsenal in the summer.With a 5-1 loss to Germany in the first game, Tierney’s team had the worst possible start, but a strong campaign with Scotland might have increased interest in him and given him confidence.The Arsenal ace was by no means the worst player, but fans have now brought attention to a moment early in the game when he joyfully celebrated a clearance, and he is now under constant criticism, especially when one considers that it was a very simple clearance in the third minute of the match.“I did think Scotland were in trouble when Kieran Tierney celebrated winning a goal kιck in the 3rd minute,” another stated.“At least Tierney got to celebrate winning a goal kιck in the 3rd minute,” one joked.Scotland fans were in full voice heading into the game, but they were silenced, and fans were quick to highlight their change in fortunes.“200,000 Scotland fans in Munich and the highlight of their night is Kieran Tierney winning a goal-kιck,” one posted.There was little sympathy for the 26-year-old, and questions will now be raised over Scotland’s chances of qualification from the group.“Tierney was celebrating winning a goal kιck, 4 mins into the first game of the tournament. 15 mins later his team are blown away,” one fan added.
Scotland’s negаtive goal difference will now make qualification from the Euro 2024 group stage difficult, but not impossible.
They will now face a Switzerland side led by Granit Xhaka before a final group game against Hungary. Scotland will need Tierney to be at his best, as they may not be able to afford another defeat.
Tierney is running out of time to impress at the Euros, and put himself in the shop window to earn himself a good move away this summer, with it clear that he and Arsenal are set to part ways for good.
