Kieran Tierney. A great player for us before he left for Arsenal.
His time at Arsenal has been impacted significantly by injury.
Should Celtic sign him? He needs to have a thorough medical first, but he is a huge risk due to his injuries.
The safe bet is not to sign him.

Worse-case scenario, we have a crocked player on the books for a few years. So what?? Celtic are loaded!
But the potential reward: a European elite quality free transfer
Far less of a risk than any of the horror-show left-backs we’ve brought in
27 appearances - mainly as a sub in over 3 years. 5 appearances last season, 22 year before. 0 this season.
That’s my point. It may well not work, but we can afford to take the risk given the potential reward. KT levels ahead of McCarthy too
(Also very charitable to suggest the reason he wasn’t playing was injury 😅)
There's a chance he goes on an injury free run. He'll always have the winning mentality we want.
If he accepts a wage within our structure then get him signed.
We get him for free, but let's assume his wages are high (for us). £40k per week. That's about 2m a year. But he barely plays for 2 years. Cost =£4m 😔
We signed nawrocki for a transfer fee of £4.5m.
Assuming Taylor and valle leave and we bring in KT. We would still need another two additional left backs. I don't think it's worth the gamble of signing such an unfit player.
