According to Todofichajes, Paris Saint-Germain are in talks with Arsenal over the transfer of Hector Bellerin in the summer transfer window.

With Thomas Meunier set to leave, PSG have identified Bellerin as a potential transfer target, according to the report.

It has been further claimed that negotiations are going well, and that figures are approaching €30 million (£26.68 million).

Intense speculation

The future of Bellerin has been the subject of much speculation in recent weeks.

Sky Germany claimed last month that Bellerin is ready to leave Arsenal this summer, but ESPN then reported that head coach Mikel Arteta has convinced the 25-year-old right-back to stay at the Gunners beyond the summer.

Pinch of salt

Anything is possible in the summer transfer window, but speculation that Arsenal and PSG are in talks over Bellerin should be taken with a pinch of salt.

After all, with the Premier League set to resume this month, it is hard to see the Gunners sanction a move for any of their players now.

True, Arsenal could eventually decide to cash in on Bellerin, who has had injury problems, but the Gunners are unlikely to make a decision right now.
