Hector Bellerin wants to move to Barcelona this summer, according to his Spain Under-21 teammate Denis Suarez.
The Arsenal right-back appeared to pledge his future to the FA Cup holders by signing a new long-term contract last November but has had his head turned by Barcelona’s reported interest.
Bellerin graduated from the famous La Masia academy before moving to England six years ago where he has since established himself as one of the best young full-backs in the English game.
The 22-year-old is currently on Spain Under-21 duty with Barcelona’s Suarez, who claims Bellerin is torn between forcing a move back to his boyhood club or remaining loyal to Arsene Wenger.
‘I have spoken with Bellerin,’ Suarez told Spanish radio show El club de la mitjanit.
‘On the one hand he wants to come to Barca and on the other he feels tied to the Arsenal.
‘I wish he could come.’
