Arsenal are rethinking their move for Celtic fullback Kieran Tierney.
The Mirror says Gunners boss Unai Emery has identified Celtic defender Tierney as one of his top transfer targets but the Scottish champions have knocked back several bids, the last one was for 25m but was structured with add-ons.
Scotland international Tierney, 22, is very keen to move to Arsenal but both clubs appear to be standing firm and the deal looks deadlocked.
Arsenal only have a budget of around 45m this summer and are trying to be clever with their spending but may now have to look at other priorities as they still want a senior centre half, midfielder and winger.
They have agreed a 27m deal for St Etienne defender William Saliba, 18, but he will be loaned back this coming season which leaves Arsenal short of defensive options.
