The 21-year-old Tierney continues to impress for the Hoops, and has been linked with a host of top clubs thanks to his rapid rise at Parkhead.

A £25 million move to Everton was mooted earlier this summer, while Juventus and Manchester United are also reportedly keeping a close eye on the left back.
