Real Sociedad and Arsenal have confirmed that left back Kieran Tierney has been signed by Real Sociedad on a season-long loan. Tierney, a 26-year-old Scotland international, joined Arsenal from Celtic in 2019 and played over 120 games for the club. Last season, he made 27 Premier League appearances but only started six times as Arsenal finished as runners-up to Manchester City.
Although Tierney came on as a substitute in Arsenal’s Community Shield victory over City earlier this month, he was not included in the squad for their three league games this season. Real Sociedad, who currently have three points from three LaLiga games, will be hosting Granada on Saturday.
