Kieran Tierney addresses rumours of rift with Mikel Arteta at Arsenal
Kieran Tierney has denied rumours a clash with Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta led to his move away from the club this summer. The Scotland left-back has joined Real Sociedad on a season-long loan deal after a campaign which yielded just six Premier League starts under Arteta, who preferred Oleksandr Zinchenko and January signing Jakub Kiwior in his position. Despite growing frustrated with his limited minutes, Tierney insisted he left Arsenal on good terms. "I left because last season I couldn't play a lot and what I wanted was to play a lot of Game s and I wanted to try to do it at Real," he told reporters. "I don't have any problem with Arsenal. "Knowing that Real wanted to have me here, feeling all the love from the people here was very good. Being in the Basque Country, having the experience of living here and playing in La Liga, is something I am very proud of. I hope things will go very well for me here."
