Kieran Tierney has joined Real Sociedad on loan from Arsenal for the remainder of the 2023-24 season.
The 26-year-old has fallen down the pecking order at the Emirates Stadium under Mikel Arteta over the past year, starting just six Premier League games during the Gunners' title challenge last season.
Tierney did feature as a substitute in Arsenal's Community Shield win over Manchester City earlier this month, but was then left out of the matchday squad for all three of their opening Premier League games.
The Scotland international has now sealed his temporary exit for the rest of the season, joining La Liga side Sociedad.
The loan agreement is not thought to include any option or obligation for Sociedad to make the move permanent.
Tierney joined Arsenal from Celtic in 2019 and has gone on to make 124 appearances for the club across all competitions, helping them to FA Cup glory in 2019-20 as well as winning two Community Shields.
The full-back could make his debut for Sociedad when they host Granada in La Liga on Saturday.
Imanol Alguacil's side have drawn all three of their league games so far this season, leaving them 12th in the embryonic table. body check tags ::
