Currently playing for the gunners in EPL, Tierney has been a key fixture in Celtic’s back line from 2015 till 2019. In that time, he has helped the Scottish giants win four consecutive Premiership titles, with each of the last three coming as part of a domestic treble. With eight goals and 37 assists to his name for Celtic in 170 appearances, it was clear he was very good going forward. The young left back was one of the best players in Scottish premiership in the last decade.

He has made around 273 appearances for the stripped outfit and has scored around 21 goals in the process. The right back was very influential in the domestic dominance of Celtic in the last decade and has won 8 Scottish Premiership titles, 4 Scottish Cups and 4 Scottish League Cup during his time in Scotland.
