Club career

Bohemians

Tierney spent his youth career with St. Kevin's Boys (which was amalgamated with Bohemians in 2018) from the age of eight.[1] Having progressed through the Bohs-SKB U17s and U19s teams, Tierney came to prominence in the second half of the 2019 season with his displays.[citation needed]

He made his first-team debut in the League of Ireland Cup Quarter Final clash with Cork City in May 2019, scoring the opening goal in a 2–0 win.[2] He struck a further three times during his rookie season, hitting the net against UCD,[3] Dundalk[4] and Waterford.

He made his first ever UEFA Europa Conference League appearance for Bohs against Stjarnan in July 2021 and scored his first European goal against F91 Dudelange two weeks later.[5]

After notching seven goals and fifteen assists during the 2021 campaign, Tierney, alongside teammate Dawson Devoy and UCD's Colm Whelan, was nominated for the PFAI Young Player of the Year award.[6]

Motherwell

On 1 December 2021, Tierney signed with Motherwell for an undisclosed fee on a three-and-a-half-year deal.[7] He completed the move on 1 January 2022. Tierney made his debut for the club on 22 January 2022 in a Scottish Cup tie against Greenock Morton, coming off the bench in the 76th minute and winning a penalty as his side won 2–1 in extra time. His first goal for Motherwell came on 1 February where he netted a 92nd minute equaliser in a 1-1 draw against St Mirren. His second goal came at home to Rangers.[8][9]

Walsall loan

On 24 July 2023, Tierney joined EFL League Two side Walsall on a season-long loan deal.[10] Tierney scored his first goal for Walsall against Blackburn Rovers in a Carabao Cup tie on 8 August 2023.[11]

Return to Bohemians

On 20 June 2024, Tierney returned to Bohemians on a multi-year contract for an undisclosed fee.[12][13]

International career

On 29 May 2021, Tierney was called up to the Republic of Ireland Under-21s squad.[14] He made his debut in a friendly against the Australia U23s on 2 June 2021, coming off the bench to score a last-minute winner with his first touch.[15] On 29 March 2022, he opened the scoring in a 2–0 win away to Sweden U21 in the 2023 UEFA European Under-21 Championship qualifiers, on his 7th cap for the U21s.[16]

Style of play

Despite his small stature, Tierney has been praised for his skill, footballing IQ, and courage by many news outlets.[17][18][19]
