Fabrizio Romano made a big claim about Hector Bellerin earlier today when tweeting comments from Arsenal target Achraf Hakimi.
The respected Italian journalist said that the 26-year-old is ‘gonna leave’ the Emirates Stadium, in what is a confident claim – to say the least.
You can see Romano’s tweet in full below.
The transfer guru’s statement comes just days after Calciomercato said that Mikel Arteta has decided to put the Spaniard up for sale, following a meeting.
The Italian news outlet state that the Gunners are happy to sell for a fee in the region of €20 million – €25 million (£17 million – £22 million).
Where will Bellerin go?
Well, Calciomercato add that Barcelona, Paris Saint-Germain and Juventus are keen on the Arsenal No.2, who has been at the club since 2011.
It remains to be seen which of these clubs he’ll join, if any of them.
However, Romano sounds utterly convinced that someone will be signing Bellerin, judging by his confident tweet.
It would be a shame to see the right-back leave with no fans in attendance to wave him off, after a decade at the club.
Bellerin has amassed 235 appearances in total for the Gunners, and is their current longest-serving player.
It will be sad to see him go, but it is certainly time for an upgrade.
