Hector Bellerin 'could leave Arsenal this summer after coming to agreement with Mikel Arteta last year that he would stay for one final season... and both sides believe now is the best time for him to move on'

Hector Bellerin could be sold by Arsenal this summer as part of an agreement with Gunners manager Mikel Arteta, according to reports.

The Spaniard has been a key part of Arsenal's season once again, making 28 appearances in all competitions so far and is the clear first-choice right-back option for the north Londoners this season.

Bellerin enjoys a healthy relationship with Arteta having played with the now-Arsenal boss when he was a Gunners star in north London.

Arsenal could cash in on Hector Bellerin at the end of the season, according to reports

But according to ESPN, Bellerin wanted to quit the Gunners at the end of last season but a heart-to-heart with Arteta convinced the right-back to stay for another season.
