Dalglish urges Tierney to quit Arsenal for Newcastle

Former Newcastle United manager Sir Kenny Dalglish believes Scottish left-back Kieran Tierney should not leave Arsenal.

The defender has struggled for game time this season, given the outstanding form of Oleksandr Zinchenko.

Tierney is no longer in favor under boss Mikel Arteta, but Dalglish does not believe he has to leave in the summer.

He told the Sunday Post: “Take the challenge up and see if he can get back in at left-back.

“If he can't get a place there, then he has to see if he can knock someone out further forward.

“On the left of midfield, or wherever there is an opportunity. Kieran still has a chance at Arsenal because, to be successful, you need a really good squad of players."
