Kieran Tierney is not in the plans of Arsenal boss Mikel Arteta for the 2024-25 campaign, sources have told Football Insider.

Tierney admitted in May that there is "every chance" he will leave the Emirates Stadium during the off-season.

And in a recent development, the 27-year-old left-back suffered yet another injury at the European Championships while playing for Scotland - dealing another blow to his reputation.

He has struggled with fitness and persistent injuries in recent seasons and was loaned out to Spanish side Real Sociedad for the 2023-24 campaign.

Arsenal are now ready to accept offers for the left-back despite his contract running until June 2026.

A sale will help boost the Gunners' transfer kitty and allow them to land top targets this summer.
