Celtic captain Scott Brown is full of praise for Kieran Tierney over his attitude amid Arsenal's pursuit.

The Gunners have had two bids rejected for the left-back, with Celtic holding out for around £25m.

Arsenal finalised the signing of Nicolas Pepe on Thursday and are now expected to return with an improved offer for the Scotland international.

Brown said, "He's fine, he's just come back from an injury.

"He's looking forward to trying to get himself back into training and get himself back on the pitch as well.

"There's always going to be speculation on top-quality players and that's what Kieran is."
