CELTIC social media has been buzzing all night with the news Kieran Tierney has signed a new six-year deal with the club.
The player, who has been scouted by several Premier League clubs has put pen to paper on what must have been one of the easiest deals to broker in the history of Celtic.
Upon hearing the news, former Celt Chris Sutton and the current Celtic captain Scott Brown took to Twitter to applaud the player and the club for the new deal.

Scott Brown knows that KT is the captain in waiting and when the midfielder does decide to hang up his Hoops jersey there is a worthy replacement waiting in the wings.
Today’s deal ensures that Kieran Tierney will be the next Celtic captain and what a captain he will be!
Absolutely delighted by this news.
Brilliant!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Great news
