Scotland star Kieran Tierney 'set for' Arsenal injury return

Scotland star Kieran Tierney 'set for' Arsenal injury return

SCOTLAND star Kieran Tierney is set to end months of injury torment this weekend. 

The Scottish Sun say that the left-back will play in Arsenal's pre-season game against Nurnberg on Friday night.

The £25million defender has been through a rehabilitation process after undergoing knee surgery in April. 

His latest setback ruled him out of Scotland's matches in June, including the World Cup play-off semi-final loss against Ukraine.

However, three-months later the former Celtic ace is said to be scheduled to play in the Gunners' friendly tomorrow evening.

It's reported that manager Mikel Arteta hopes to give him at least part of the game.
