Arsenal reportedly consider dropping their interest in Celtic defender Kieran Tierney due to the cost of the deal.

Arsenal are reportedly considering dropping their interest in Celtic defender Kieran Tierney.

The Gunners have been strongly linked with a swoop for the Scotland international in this summer's transfer window, but it has been reported that the club are struggling to agree a fee with the Hoops.

Arsenal are said to have made a bid worth £25m in various add-ons, which Celtic have rejected as the Scottish giants want more money up front.

According to the Daily Mail, Unai Emery's side are now considering pulling the plug on a deal as the team already have experienced options at left-back in the shape of Nacho Monreal and Sead Kolasinac.

The report adds that Arsenal's need for a new centre-back, a midfielder and a winger ahead of the 2019-20 campaign could lead to the English club deciding against another offer for Tierney.

Crystal Palace, meanwhile, are said to have rejected a fresh bid from Emery's team for Wilfried Zaha, with the Eagles holding firm on their £80m valuation.
