But the Celtic diehard admits he misses Scotland every day and plans to settle back home when he hangs up his boots.

At 24, the left-back's best years are still ahead of him as he continues to boost his profile in the Premier League.

However, speaking to Arsenal's matchday programme ahead of the win over Leeds last season, Tierney was asked about life after football.

He said: "I have thought about it, but it’s hard to say with it being so far away.

"It’s not crossed my mind to do any coaching badges or anything like that yet.

"Some of the older players talk about it, and doing the qualifications, it’s probably something you think more about when you get over 30, but before that it’s all about your playing career.

"Well when I finish playing I’ll be back in Scotland, no doubt going back to my old life of supporting Celtic home and away again!
