Kieran Tierney talk goes quiet as Arsenal eat into limited transfer budget
This could be good news for Celtic fans hoping Arsenal drop their interest in star left-back Kieran Tierney.
The Gunners have had a bid of £15 million for the player turned down, while there are conflicting reports regarding a second offer of £18 million that was also said to have been rebuffed by the Parkhead club.

It has been widely reported that manager Unai Emery has just £45 million to spent this summer, with £6 million already paid for Gabriel Martinelli.
If Saliba, as expected, completes his signing then it will take their spending over £30 million with other areas of the squad still to strengthen.
