Kieran Tierney is preparing to return to Arsenal after his loan spell at Real Sociedad this season.
The left-back has remained one of Sociedad’s key players, but it is unlikely they can afford to secure him permanently.
This means he will be back at the Emirates in less than ten weeks, prompting Arsenal to reassess his future.
Tierney has lost his first-team place at the Emirates and currently finds himself behind the likes of Oleksandr Zinchenko, Jakub Kiwior, and Jurrien Timber at the club.
He will need to find another club to join, either temporarily or permanently, at the end of this season, and the Scotsman has admitted feeling saddened about leaving Real Sociedad.
He said, as quoted by Marca:
“I don’t speak as much Spanish as I would like. It’s very difficult to learn and you need to be consistent for three or four days a week, but I have learned a different style of football and a different culture.
“I’m living an incredible experience, which I’m enjoying. It’s sad there is so little left with only six or seven weeks until the season ends.”
Just Arsenal Opinion
Tierney is a fine player, but he is not the right fit for us, so there is no reason to keep him in our group.
Hopefully, he will find a new club to take a chance on him at the end of this season.

It looks unlikely that Tierney will revive his career at Arsenal
Reading on JA that he has really benefited from his time in Spain then it could be an opportunity to stay and get the most out of it as a life experience
Reading what Tierney earns at Arsenal should give him a great future without financial worries. If a bit of common ground can be found between all parties for him to stay in Spain then that seems like a good way forward
It is with great sadness I read this article, we have been taught to work hard and maintain good discipline, the Scott’s cannot be acuse of lack of effort.
We knows Tierney won’t score a wordie every week, but you know he’ll give you consistency of performance level and effort.
Will always remember this kid turning up with his Tesco bag ready to train.
