Newcastle are weighing up a potential summer bid for Arsenal left-back Kieran Tierney, according to reports.
The former Celtic star has struggled for minutes this season, with manager Mikel Arteta regularly selecting Oleksandr Zinchenko ahead of him.
However, when asked whether the Gunners should consider selling Tierney, the vast majority of supporters on Twitter said they want the defender to stay at the Emirates:
Must never be entertained.

I doubt he would want to leave,but if he leaves,all the best to him,he is a fantastic player to watch

That would be seriously unwise unless there’s a better replacement he’s eyeing out.

Every ambitious team wants at least two good players in each position, if he leaves us for them, he would still have to fight for his place.

In all honesty, Tierney is a quality player but Arteta seems to overlook him

It has been a very difficult season for Tierney so far. While in past campaigns the fullback has been struck down by injury, he has been available for every match since August. Even so, he has started just four times in the league.
With that being the case, it wouldn’t be a surprise if the 25-year-old was considering leaving Arsenal in order to become a regular starter somewhere else. Fans are seemingly hopeful, though, that he will reject offers and remain in London for the foreseeable future.
