As the football season progresses, the threat of injuries looms large, and for Arsenal’s Kieran Tierney, the latest setback could spell the end of his campaign.
Reports from Spain’s El Chiringuito indicate that Tierney, currently on loan at Real Sociedad from Arsenal, suffered a right adductor injury during a training session on Wednesday. The severity of the injury is yet to be determined, with clinical tests awaited to assess the extent of the damage.
This injury comes as a blow to Tierney, who has already faced multiple spells on the sidelines due to hamstring issues earlier in the season. With the uncertainty surrounding his recovery timeline, it casts doubt on his availability for the remainder of the season.
The 26-year-old’s loan spell at Real Sociedad may be impacted by this latest setback, potentially affecting any plans for a permanent move from Arsenal. Despite having a contract with Arsenal until June 2026, Tierney’s future at the club remains uncertain, especially considering his limited involvement in Mikel Arteta’s plans.
As Arsenal assess their options for the upcoming summer transfer window, Tierney’s injury adds another layer of complexity to their squad management strategy.
