Hector Bellerin has seemingly committed his long-term future to the Emirates.
Hector Bellerin has insisted to YouTtube channel DW that if Barcelona called him regarding a move back to his homeland he would not pick up the phone.
The 21-year-old was poached by Arsenal five years ago and has since established himself as a top full-back and as one of the first names on Gunners manager Arsene Wenger’s team-sheet.
When asked by YouTube channel the DW channel what he would do if contacted by his alma mater Bellerin said: “If Barcelona contact me right now? I won’t pick up the phone.”
Since breaking into the Arsenal side in the 2014-2015 season Bellerin’s growth and potential show no sign of waning.
And with 92 appearances since making his debut in 2014, the Spaniard has established himself as one of the top players in his positions.
His performances and standing in the English game were acknowledged as Bellerin was named in the PFA Team of the Year last season.
After representing Spain in every age group, he was awarded his first competitive start for his country in May of this year against Bosnia and Herzegovina.
