Celtic Tipped To Receive 7.5M Windfall If Former Player Makes Shock La Liga Switch

Celtic Tipped To Receive 7.5M Windfall If Former Player Makes Shock La Liga Switch

Celtic could receive £7.5m if Arsenal do sell Kieran Tierney to Real Madrid this summer, according to the Scottish Sun.

Reports in Spain claim the 24-year-old is a target for 13-time European Cup winners, and it is suggested that the fullback could be offloaded if a bid of around £50m is received.

With Celtic having a 15% sell-on clause on Tierney, that would work out at around £7.5m for the Hoops, but it must be said that the £50m figure quoted is highly speculative.

Real Madrid are only looking for a backup option to support Ferland Mendy so they are unlikely to spend anywhere near that amount to snap up Tierney.

Arsenal would also be very reluctant to sell their first-choice left-back and, after signing the Scottish international for £25m, they would surely demand too much for Real to seriously consider a move for the player. Take this story with a large pinch of salt.
