Muirhouse's Kieran Tierney has been told to not get caught up in transfer links, amid reported interest from Barcelona and Real Madrid in the former Celtic star.The left-back - who plays at centre-back for Scotland - has been immense for English Premier League side Arsenal this season as they push for the top four and Champions League football.He's been one of the names mentioned with becoming the Gunners' new captain but links have emerged in potential moves away from London.Barcelona and Real Madrid are both believed to be interested in the former Celtic defender but it's not something that should concern the Muirhouse man, according to former Arsenal left-back Nigel Winterburn.The 58-year-old made over 400 Gunners appearances over 13 years between 1987 and 2000, with his belief that all they show is Tierney's good form.He said: "That suggests that he's playing well enough to be linked to those clubs.

I don't really worry about those links because he's at Arsenal, he's under contract and there's been no suggestion to me that he would want to move."I think everybody feels it's great when you're linked to big clubs, but he's already at a big club who are striving to get back to where they want to be."If they get back to that stage domestically then the only thing would be being competitive in Europe which is what Arsenal have always strived to do, even from when I was there."That's still a way off, but personally I don't worry about these sorts of links, I don't think he wants to push for a move away."If anything, it's a positive thing because it shows that he is performing to a high enough level for there to be those links."Tierney arrived at Arsenal from Celtic in 2019 for a fee in the region of £25 million.
