Bellerin on the verge of leaving Arsenal

By Saheed Afolabi

Arsenal could consider Hector Bellerin leaving the club this summer according to an agreement reached between the player and manager Mikel Arteta.

The 25 year-old right back had the intention of parting ways with the Gunners last season but the intervention of Arteta changed the plans as Paris Saint-Germain and Barcelona mounted pressure on him.

Despite pressures from two European Football power houses, the discussion which Arteta had with Bellerin changed the right back mind and committed to stay for one more season with the Gunners before exploring his options at the end of the season.

Presently there are no reports of negotiation between Bellerin and Arsenal regarding his future but the two years left on the Spaniard contract may trigger him to move elsewhere after spending a decade at the Emirates.

Though Bellerin has never been short of offers from varying clubs in past summers, it’s evident there will be a host of clubs pursuing his signature in the summer because of how frustrated the player has been in Arsenal.
