Kieran Tierney Assists in Celtic Trophy Return

Kieran Tierney has returned to Celtic on a five-year contract after six years, emphasizing he has 'nothing to prove' about his fitness following injury spells at Arsenal and Real Sociedad. A product of the Celtic youth academy and a previous multiple domestic trophy winner with the club, Tierney marked his comeback with an assist in a vibrant pre-season win over Newcastle United, where Celtic secured a trophy. He stressed that his return was motivated by his connection to the club rather than a desire to be 'home' or prove himself. Tierney is committed to bringing energy and determination to his second spell and is looking forward to a 'more experienced role' in the squad. The atmosphere at Celtic Park during his return was electric, with strong support from both Celtic and Newcastle fans. Tierney's decision to come back was described as straightforward due to his affection for the club.
