Celtic skipper Scott Brown sends message to Kieran Tierney following his Arsenal move

Scotland international left-back Kieran Tierney has joined English Premier League side Arsenal from Scottish Premiership giants Celtic on transfer deadline day.

The 22-year-old finally completed a move that had been in the pipeline all summer for £25 million, becoming the most expensive Scot in history.

Tierney signed a five-year contract with the Gunners, and has been widely tipped to replicate his excellent form during his time with Celtic at the Emirates Stadium.

The youngster, who now holds a Scottish transfer record, will be missed by the Hoops faithful and his former teammates – the majority of whom are gutted to see him leave.
