Real Madrid have reportedly stepped up their interest in Arsenal defender Kieran Tierney ahead of this summer's transfer window.
The 24-year-old has again been a regular for the Gunners during the 2021-22 campaign, making 22 appearances in all competitions, contributing one goal and three assists in the process.
Real Madrid are believed to be keen to sign a new left-back during this summer's transfer window, with Marcelo set to leave the club on a free transfer at the end of June.
A recent report claimed that Carlo Ancelotti's side had identified Tierney as a potential transfer target ahead of the 2022-23 season.
According to 90min, Los Blancos have now accelerated their interest in the Scotland international after scouting him over the last month.
The report claims that Real Madrid's chief scout Juni Calafat has been impressed by the full-back's performances and has recommended that the capital outfit move for him.
Tierney still has more than four years left to run on his contract at the Emirates Stadium, having signed an extension with the Gunners last June.
