MIKE Arteta is a baby coach, which makes me sad. After receiving harsh treatment from the Arsenal Boss last season, an Arsenal star has admitted he will never play for the Gunners again. Like Xhaka, the player wants to quit right away.
Mikel Arteta discloses left-back transfer plans, and Kieran Tierney rules out a return to Arsenal.
After losing his spot under Arteta, Tierney signs a season-long loan with Real Sociedad.
The team’s lone natural left-back, Oleksandr Zinchenko, is hurt.
Arteta is prepared to navigate the transfer market and find a solution.
Kieran Tierney has ruled out going back to Arsenal this month after terminating his loan at Real Sociedad.
Due to a recent calf injury, Oleksandr Zinchenko replaced the Scottish left-back at Arsenal, leaving the senior team without a natural left-back. The left-back spent a season at Sociedad last summer.
To cover on the left, manager Mikel Arteta has used right-back Takehiro Tomiyasu and center-back Jakub Kiwior, but some supporters have urged Arsenal to just call up Tierney to bolster their roster for the remainder of the campaign.
Tierney assured Noticias de Gipuzkoa that he would not make an early return to Arsenal in response to questions about this rumor.
I’ve been asked about it a few times, but the answer is no. In January, I will most certainly remain here, Tierney declared. “The Arsenal supporters are amazing; they’ve always been very encouraging.” I have been there for four years, and I will always be appreciative of the fans.”
Arsenal is short-staffed at left-back with Zinchenko sidelined and Tomiyasu now absent due to the Asian Cup. Arteta acknowledged during Friday’s press conference that the club may look to sign a new defender.
Arteta told the media, “We are open to the transfer market, but again, the focus is on making the most of what we have.” “We’ll see if the club has any good options or any options at all. We’ll start by concentrating on our current players.
Arteta affirmed that choosing not to sign a new defender is one of the “options.”
Tierney will return to Arsenal in the summer when his two-year contract expires because his loan at Sociedad does not include the option of a permanent transfer.
Regarding his long-term future, Tierney remarked, “The decision is not mine.” I enjoy playing for Real, that’s all I have to say. And I really enjoy it.
