Arsenal 'walk away from Kieran Tierney talks'

Arsenal have reportedly ended discussions with Celtic regarding the signing of defender Kieran Tierney.

The Gunners have spent the last few weeks attempting to strike a deal for the versatile full-back, who has been strongly linked with a move south of the border.

However, Celtic have indicated that they are only willing to part ways with arguably their most prized asset if his £25m price-tag is met by an interested club.

According to the Daily Record, Arsenal are against paying most of that fee in the coming weeks, instead preferring to pay in a number of instalments.

Celtic have refused to budge, however, which has seemingly led to Unai Emery opting to switch his attention of different targets.

The 22-year-old still has four years remaining on his contract.
