- Arsenal fans have spotted a hint that Kieran Tierney could be packing his bags
- Tierney spent last season on loan with Real Sociedad and enjoyed his time there
- Arsenal have a multitude of left back options and have added Riccardo Calafiori
Arsenal fans believe they have spotted a huge clue that Kieran Tierney is ‘100 per cent’ leaving this summer amid swirling exit rumours.
The Gunners treated supporters to a 4-1 demolition of Bayer Leverkusen on Wednesday night on their return to the Emirates.
In their penultimate pre-season game, Oleksandr Zinchenko, Leandro Trossard, Gabriel Jesus, and Kai Havertz were all on the scoresheet.
However, Tierney’s name was nowhere to be seen – not even on the matchday programme squad list.
That detail has sent fans into overdrive because even injured players are typically listed on the squad list.

‘Kieran Tierney isn’t even included on the matchday programme. He’s 100 per cent leaving,’ wrote one fan on X, formerly Twitter.
‘Same thing happened with [Nicolas] Pepe last season if I remember correctly,’ another said.
However, some think it could just have been a mistake as there were other errors such as William Saliba being listed as No 4 alongside Ben White.
Tierney has been linked with a move away after completing a loan with Real Sociedad last season. In February he exclusively opened up to Mail Sport about how much he was loving his time with the LaLiga club.
The 27-year-old Scottish full-back has two years left on his deal, which is worth in excess of £100,000 per week.
Asked in May by The Athletic if he had played his last game for Arsenal, he said: ‘There is every chance.
‘Look at the squad depth in that position now. They have Zinchenko, [Jurrien] Timber, [Takehiro] Tomiyasu, [Jakub] Kiwior. Four players can play there.
‘So if I go back and it’s the same as before then I’m not silly, I know the chances are I’ll be leaving.
