Arsenal's first bid for Celtic defender Kieran Tierney has been rejectedArsenal boss Unai Emery is working with a reduced transfer budget this summer after failing to secure a return to Champions League football in his first season as Gunners boss. The Spaniard has made Celtic and Scotland defender Kieran Tierney his main transfer target with the promising left-back set to cost a large portion of the money he has to spend. Emery has made his defence a priory after their 4-1 defeat to Chelsea in the Europa League final changed the outlook on their season to a negative one. Tierney has won four league titles since breaking into the first team at Parkhead and has caught the eye of suitors in several transfer windows.
