Arsenal 'consider' terminating Kieran Tierney Real Sociedad loan amid injury crisis

Arsenal are reportedly considering calling Kieran Tierney back from his loan at Real Sociedad due to Oleksandr Zinchenko's injury woes.

This is according to The Express who claim that "Mikel Arteta is considering utilising a break option in his loan deal to ease his problems at left-back."

Tierney joined the LaLiga side in the summer until the end of the season after finding his game time at the Emirates limited during the 2022/23 campaign.

And despite injury troubles of his own in recent months, the Celtic academy graduate has started the last five league games in Spain.

The Gunners recently had to play centre-back Jakub Kiwior at left-back during their 2-1 defeat to Fulham due to a lack of options.

Meanwhile, Celtic hero Jota could be poised to leave Al-Ittihad on a "free" after struggling to make an impact in Saudi Arabia.

This is according to outlet Hi Koura which claims that the Saudi Pro League champions will attempt to "rip up the winger's contract".

Jota joined the Middle Eastern club for £25million during the summer transfer window but has found his game time limited due to being left out of Ittihad's league squad.

And now it appears like the winger could be set to depart the Saudi Arabian side.
