Arsenal star Tierney reveals the changing room chat with Bellerin which 'changed everything'

Kieran Tierney has revealed the impact Hector Bellerin has had on his short Arsenal career so far, saying he would never have been able to settle so well without the invaluable guidance of his Spanish team-mate.

Tierney joined Arsenal from Celtic in the summer of 2019 for £25 million ($30m), but arrived with a groin injury that had limited him to just seven league appearances during his final five months in Glasgow.

It would be a further two months before he eventually made his Gunners debut, and the 23-year-old spent that time working on his rehabilitation alongside Bellerin, who was coming back from the cruciate ligament injury he had suffered against Chelsea in January 2019.
