# Celtic: These fans seem to have moved on from Kieran Tierney

**A month ago today, Kieran Tierney completed a £25m transfer from Celtic to Arsenal on the English Premier League’s transfer deadline day, as reported by [BBC](https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/49283667).**

The 22-year-old left-back departed the Scottish champions after playing 170 times for the club, with eight goals and 37 assists to his name in a Celtic shirt. \[[via TransferMarkt.co.uk](https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/kieran-tierney/leistungsdatenverein/spieler/300716)\]

[Celtic fan Adam Lynch](https://twitter.com/AdamLynch27) on Twitter ([@AdamLynch27](https://twitter.com/AdamLynch27/status/1170816478519668739)) still seems stunned by the transfer, tweeting that he “[still can’t believe](https://twitter.com/AdamLynch27/status/1170816478519668739)” Tierney is no longer with the Hoops.

The [Scotland international](https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/kieran-tierney/profil/spieler/300716)‘s deadline day move to Arsenal ended a saga that ran for several weeks over the summer, with Celtic turning down two bids from the Gunners before [ultimately relenting on August 9th](https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/49283667).

[The Sun](https://www.thesun.ie/sport/football/4244625/arsenal-offer-15m-kieran-tierney-rejected-celtic/) reported that the Premier League club made an initial £15m bid for the player in June, one which Celtic rejected out of hand, before the Hoops turned down an improved offer of £25m in mid-July, according to [BBC](https://www.bbc.com/sport/football/48979998).

These Celtic fans seem to have moved on from the Tierney saga since his move to London a month ago:
