Arsenal's Kieran Tierney 'becomes long-term Napoli target'

Kieran Tierney is reportedly a long-term target for Napoli after the Serie A side missed out on the Arsenal full-back at the beginning of last season.

The Scotland international opted for a move from Celtic to Arsenal in August 2019 for a fee of £25m, despite rumoured interest at the time from Napoli.

Tierney has been arguably Arsenal's most consistent performer this season, earning rave reviews for his performances down the left flank.

However, according to The Telegraph, the Gunners may now face competition keeping hold of the 23-year-old as Napoli are plotting a fresh move.

The report claims that the Italian outfit are unlikely to make an approach this month, but that may change in the summer when funds become available.

Tierney has started all but one of Arsenal's Premier League matches this term, scoring and assisting a combined two goals.
