Celtic believed they had secured Tierney as their new acquisition; however, he has already departed. Parkhead While the January transfer window is still several months away from opening, Celtic has already been associated with the possibility of acquiring one of their former players. Arsenal left-back Kieran Tierney has recently been reported to have prioritized securing a return to Parkhead in anticipation of the second half of the season. The outlet disclosed that the Hoops are contemplating a transfer for the Scotland international, while the Gunners are willing to permit him to depart on loan in order to facilitate a return to Glasgow.

Boli Bolingoli had been signed by the Bhoys as his replacement; however, as we are all aware, the

situation did not unfold as anticipated. What was Celtic’s expenditure on Boli Bolingoli? The Belgian defender was acquired by the Scottish champions for a reported fee of £3 million, with a salary of £780,000 per season, from Austrian side Rapid Vienna. The defender was expected to replace the academy graduate in the 2019/20 campaign. He had contributed two goals and two assists in 25 matches in the Bundesliga during the previous season, but he had also experienced a 53% decline in his performance. Celtic decided to spend £3 million on the full-back, despite his physical limitations, as he expressed his desire to “emulate” Tierney’s success at left-back for the Scottish Premiership team.
