Kieran Tierney lists Celtic trio Scott Brown, Henrik Larsson and Bobo Balde as his top three players of all time.

Kieran Tierney has listed Celtic trio Scott Brown, Henrik Larsson and Bobo Balde as his top three players of all time.

The Glasgow-born player kicked off his career at Celtic, making his debut aged 18 and going on to make 170 appearances for the club.

Following an intense pursuit from Arsenal, Tierney finally completed a move to the Emirates on deadline day for a fee of £25m.

Asked about his top three players of all time, he told the Daily Record: "One of them is Scott Brown who I played with for many years and I learned a lot from. The other two are Celtic legends and that's Bobo Balde and Henrik Larsson."

The left-back is yet to play for Arsenal, having undergone an operation on his hernia over the summer, but is expected back soon.

Tierney returned to the pitch for the first time in four months in a EPL2 match against Wolves, playing 60 minutes in a 1-1 draw.
