West Ham United allegedly want to sign Arsenal left-back Kieran Tierney in the summer transfer window.
That’s according to a report from 90 Min who claim that the Hammers face competition from the likes of Newcastle for the 25-year-old Arsenal ace’s signature this summer.

West Ham boss David Moyes desperately needs to strengthen his left-back ranks at the London Stadium before the start of next season.
And now it seems as though the Hammers actually could move for the Gunners defender at the end of the season…
West Ham want to sign Arsenal left-back
90 Min reckon that Moyes wants to bring Kieran Tierney to the London Stadium from the Emirates in the summer transfer window.
In my opinion, Arsenal star Tierney could be the perfect option for us.
The 25-year-old ex-Celtic ace possesses blistering pace, is very strong in the tackle and is hard to get past. He is also very attacking and would be perfect for the wing-back role at the London Stadium.
The Arsenal star possesses an absolutely wicked delivery as well – the one thing that we really do miss when Aaron Cresswell doesn’t play.
Kieran Tierney is at a stage of his career now where he needs to be playing regularly, and he certainly won’t get that at Arsenal with Zinchenko at the club.
The Scottish defender would be an exceptional addition for West Ham in my opinion. However, there is one huge red flag for the Hammers – his terrible injury record.
Tierney has missed 48 games for the Gunners through injury since joining them in the summer of 2019 (Transfermarkt). That said, it could be argued that he’s already had all of his bad luck.
He could be available for around £30 million this summer (The Sun). And in my opinion, signing him for that kind of money will be well worth the risk for West Ham.
