Arsenal are in talks with Celtic to sign Scotland defender Kieran Tierney.
The Premier League club had a £15m bid rejected by the Scottish champions but are expected to return with an improved offer for the 22-year-old.
There is optimism that an agreement will be reached between the two clubs, and personal terms are not expected to be a stumbling block.
Tierney has only played sporadically this year because of a hernia problem and is recuperating from surgery.
