Manchester United step up their chase for Scottish international left-back

According to reports in the Daily Star, Manchester United boss Jose Mourinho has stepped up his pursuit of highly-rated Celtic full-back Kieran Tierney. The 20-year-old was one of the Glasgow giant’s star performers during their record breaking campaign which saw Brendan Rogers’ side go the entire campaign without defeat, and now his future could lie south of the border with United understood to be ready to make their move.
 
Celtic are believed to have put a £15M price-tag on their player but in a recent interview, Tierney played down reports that he was set to leave the club, stating that; “You see stuff in the papers and on Twitter, people telling you and my friends as well, but I just need to concentrate on what I'm doing in training and playing well for Celtic. It's easy for me because I'm happy where I am. I'm not thinking about anything else other than Celtic and just doing what I can for the team and helping us win every game."
