‘Heartbroken’ Tierney ruled out for rest of Euro 2024

Kieran Tierney says “heartbroken doesn’t cut it” after the Scotland defender was ruled out of Euro 2024 with the hamstring injury that forced him off against Switzerland.

The 27-year-old, who has returned to Arsenal after an injury hampered season on loan to Real Sociedad, came off on a stretcher in the 1-1 Group A draw in Cologne on Wednesday.

Expressing his disappointment on Instagram, Tierney added: “Love this team and these boys. This too shall pass.”
Earlier, Scotland assistant head coach John Carver said: “He is heading home to be assessed by Arsenal and that’s all I can really say at the moment.

“They will give updates as they have it, but he is obviously extremely disappointed. If we do progress and move through the tournament, I am sure he will be back to support us.”
