Left-back Kieran Tierney has completed his move back to Celtic.

The Scotland international has signed a deal until 2030 at Celtic Park, six years after leaving Glasgow for Arsenal.

The 28-year-old won 10 major trophies during his first stint with Celtic and, after an injury-plagued career in North London during which time he made just 104 league appearances, Tierney was delighted to be returning to his boyhood club.

Tierney, who also had a loan spell with Real Sociedad during the 2023-24 season, told the Celtic website: “Everybody’s known for a few months and just to be here with the Celtic strip on again just feels amazing.

“I spoke with the manager, and obviously I had worked with him before and I’ve always kept in touch with him. He’s one of the best so I’m so lucky and grateful that he’s given me the chance to come back again.

“When you move away from home, you grow up, you learn different things. I was in Spain for a year, learning a different language and playing in a different league, so I’m definitely a different person.

“Player-wise, it’s the same as I always say – I’ll try and work my hardest, I’ll do my best for the club and that’s all I can do.

“My ambition is just for Celtic to be as successful as possible, retain our place at the top and continue to win trophies and do well for Celtic.”

Rodgers thrilled to secure Tierney signature

The move enables Tierney to be reunited with Brendan Rodgers, whose squad is now bolstered as they look to retain the Scottish Premiership crown they won last season.

Rodgers said: “We are delighted to welcome Kieran back to Celtic. He is such a talented, high-quality player and he will be a massive addition to our squad.

“Kieran has always had Celtic in his blood and he is excited to be coming back to the place he loves.

“He is someone who has given so much to Celtic already and I know he is so motivated and hungry to help the club bring more and more success to our fans.

“We are so pleased to bring such an elite player back to the club and I look forward to working with him again and the rest of the squad, as we face the many challenges ahead at home and in Europe.”
