Negotiations are underway for a sensational Kieran Tierney return to Celtic, according to renowned transfer guru Fabrizio Romano.
The left-back has long been linked with an emotional reunion with Brendan Rodgers at Parkhead, and it appears it is well in the works.
Tierney, 27, is contracted at Arsenal until next summer. He joined the Gunners from the Hoops in 2019 for a then-record £25m fee.

He has since made 125 appearances for the North London side [Transfermarkt] but has struggled with injuries.
Now, it looks like a return to Glasgow is in the works. Indeed, Romano took to X on Monday morning to provide an update on the situation, stating how discussions are currently taking place for the transfer, which Tierney is keen on:

It remains to be seen whether Celtic will sign Tierney for free in the summer upon the expiry of his Arsenal contract or if he may join the Hoops initially on loan or a permanent transfer this month.
The move seems inevitable, although CeltsAreHere understands that the Scottish Premiership champions have only dialogued with the player up to this point, not Arsenal.
Brendan Rodgers has worked with Tierney previously and got the best out of him during his maiden spell in Glasgow’s east end.
The Irishman will look to create similar success with a player who, at 27, is far from past it. In fact, the attack-minded defender is coming into his peak years ahead of a potential Celtic return.
Kieran is not the answer,he would not have coped any better yesterday than Taylor,that’s even if was injury free,that game yesterday would have been too rough.
