Kieran Tierney Fired Arsenal ‘Impossible’ Message As He Battles With Zinchenko

He’s featured in just nine minutes in the last eight league outings with most of his game time coming in cup competitions or the Europa League this term.

Arsenal are reported to be seeking the £25million fee they shelled out to Celtic in order to part ways with the defender – who may well taste some action this Thursday night in the Europa League against Sporting Lisbon with the 25-year-old playing in every group stage game.

The return is next midweek and minutes under the belt would come as a major boost to Scotland boss Steve Clarke with his squad to face Cyprus and Spain named very soon.

Speaking to bettingexpert.com, Silvestre said: “Zinchenko is quite a special player. That’s what it is you have to compete with someone else who’s won the Premier League already with City and he’s doing well.

“So, you have to be patient. It doesn’t mean you just let go and wait. You have to prove in training every time that you deserve to play.

“But yes, it is difficult to get Zinchenko out of the team. It is pretty much impossible. That’s what it is, it’s just tough because of that.”

Arsenal wants £25M for Newcastle United target Kieran Tierney

The report has claimed that Newcastle want to sign Tierney from Premier League rivals Arsenal.

The Magpies are keen on securing the services of the former Celtic left-back and believe that he will be an upgrade for them.

The report has claimed that Arsenal will not stand in the way of the defender if he wants to leave, but the Premier League leaders will demand at least £25 million for the £110,000-a-week (SalarySport) star.

That is the transfer fee that Arsenal paid to Celtic for the 25-year-old when they signed him.
