Kieran Tierney, a Scottish defender who primarily plays at left back for Arsenal, was born on 5 June 1997, making him 27 years of age. He is 5ft 10in tall (1.78m) and weighs 11st 13lb (76kg). Having the honour of donning the number 3 jersey for Arsenal, Tierney has also represented the Scotland national team in international matches. His market value presently stands at around £8.5m as reported by Transfermarkt
Back in July 2014, Tierney joined Celtic, making his first impression in the Scottish Premiership. He had a humble start with only two first team appearances in league matches, but gradually came into his own in the following seasons. His statistics proved his consistent growth as a player with 23 first team appearances and one goal in the 2015 - 2016 season. He went on to maintain this momentum, making regular appearances and scoring for Celtic till his final season of 2018 - 2019 before his transfer to Arsenal.
It was a considerable leap for Tierney when he moved from Celtic to Arsenal in August 2019 in exchange for a transfer fee of approximately £25m. He kept his place secure in the English Premier League, demonstrating persistent efforts on the pitch with regular appearances and goal contributions across seasons from 2019 to 2023. However, he had a brief departure from Arsenal in August 2023 when he was loaned to Real Sociedad in Spain's LaLiga. He played 20 league matches for the team before returning to Arsenal in June 2024.
Back on home ground post his loan tenure, Tierney continued with his consistent appearances and contributions for Arsenal. Currently in the 2024 - 2025 season, Tierney has made six first team appearances in league matches. Aside from league matches, his involvement has also stretched to a variety of tournaments such as the FA cup, League cup, Euro 2024, Euro Qualifiers, Nations league and Champions League, standing testament to his versatility and endurance as a footballer.
