It’s been a weekend of celebration for both Celtic and Rangers as they secured their places in the semi-finals of the Scottish Cup. However, amidst the footballing triumphs, there are significant developments swirling around Glasgow.
For instance, former Celtic player Kieran Tierney, now plying his trade at Arsenal, has reportedly been valued by the Gunners ahead of a potential summer transfer. Arsenal, looking to undergo a major revamp, could be open to offers for Tierney, with a price tag set at over £20 million. The Scottish international might find himself back at Celtic, although the financial feasibility for the club remains uncertain. Alternatively, Tierney could explore options in La Liga, considering his successful loan spell at Real Sociedad this season. Notably, Celtic would receive 15% of any transfer fee if Arsenal were to sell Tierney.
Meanwhile, attention is also drawn to Benfica’s Joao Neves, who has caught the eye of Manchester United ahead of their Europa League clash with Rangers. Reports suggest that United, under the influence of new minority owner Jim Ratcliffe, are keen on securing the young Portuguese talent, with a potential offer rumored to reach £100 million. This development adds an extra layer of intrigue to the upcoming European encounter between Rangers and Benfica.
These stories underline the dynamic nature of football’s transfer market and the ongoing battles for talent and success within the sport, particularly among top clubs like Celtic, Rangers, Arsenal, and Manchester United.
