Arsenal signed Kieran Tierney from Celtic in 2019 and, despite his injury problems, he has already proven himself to be one of the most important players in the squad.

A new deal makes everybody happy, especially Tierney, as it also comes with a pay rise.

Before Tierney signed a new deal with Celtic in 2017, he was reportedly earning £15kpw. Not a bad wage at all for a then-20-year-old. His extension, signed in October of that year, saw his wages rise to £25kpw. Still not too shabby.

Arsenal, however, tripled his wages when they paid £24.3m for him, moving him on to £75kpw, an amount that is set to increase further with his new five-year contract.

Now, it is claimed that the defender will earn in excess of £100kpw, although the exact figure is not yet known. The S*n claim it will be £110kpw.

Arsenal are also believed to be in the market for a back-up left-back this summer, hoping to sign a young player to serve as stand-in for Tierney.
