Hector Bellerin hints that he won't return to Arsenal after his Real Betis loan after falling out of favour with Mikel Arteta as Spanish defender says emotional pull of playing for his favourite club was greater than money

Hector Bellerin has hinted he has no intention of returning to Arsenal when his season-long loan at Real Betis ends.

The Spanish right-back supported Betis as a boy and accepted a move there on deadline day at the end of August as the Gunners signed Takehiro Tomiyasu to play his position.

Bellerin, 26, had been phased out of the Arsenal side during last season, with manager Mikel Arteta preferring Calum Chambers on the right side of defence.
