Kieran Tierney spoke about how impressed he is with this season’s chants from the fans and discussed the difficulties he faced when being out injured.

Tierney has been in fine form for the Hoops this season having made 26 appearances in all competitions under Brendan Rodgers.

The 19-year-old Tierney recently spoke of his admiration for the new chants created by the passionate Celtic fans, with songs dedicated to defender Dedryck Boyata and Scott Sinclair being the most notable.

In an interview with Celtic View, he spoke of the songs by saying:

Those are two great tunes to be fair. I always learn the songs and tell the boys all of them, so if there is a new tune I will let the boys know. I told Scotty and Dedro about theirs, and whoever made them up deserves something special as both the songs are brilliant.

If my music is on in the dressing-room, I will play both songs, ‘We Didn’t Start the Fire’ or the ‘Logical Song’. Scotty’s song gets you going and Dedro’s song is a bit different in tone but they are both great tunes and whoever is behind them is a genius.

I think they both love them as they are good tunes… I was just gutted that they weren’t about me!

He also shared his opinion on the chant dedicated to him, as well as speaking about his time out with injury.

The Scottish international added:

It’s class. It’s really special. There are no words for it. It’s what you dream of, Celtic Park singing your name. I grew up a Celtic fan and everyone knows that, but even when I was out injured I wanted to take it in from the stands to see what it felt like for them and see how special it was.

It was good to go back to the game with my mates. Nothing changed for them as they go to every game anyway and I just tagged along as we did when we were younger. It did bring back memories of when I was 14 or 15 and I enjoyed it while I could.

An ankle injury suffered in October ruled the left-back out of action for three months, though the left-back recovered and is back showcasing his incredible talent.

He’s been linked with clubs such as Chelsea and Bayern Munich in recent months, but it’s unlikely that the Celtic youth academy graduate will be leaving his childhood club anytime soon.

Tierney will be in action again on Saturday for Celtic when they welcome Hamilton Academical to Paradise.
