Bellerin broke into the Arsenal first team after an injury to Mathieu Debuchy and established himself as first-choice right-back after putting in consistently excellent performances.

One of the most coveted aspects about Bellerin is his lightning-fast agility and quickness, with the Spaniard having broken Theo Walcott’s 40 meter Arsenal sprint record by 1/100th of a second – clocking in at 4.41 seconds.

Bellerin is one of the first names on the team sheet when he is fit and he offers a constant threat on the flanks, while also offering a reliable outlet during counter-attacks. He managed to win the FA Cup in his first season as a regular and has already earned 3 caps for the Spanish national team.

A graduate of the famed La Masia academy, Barcelona have been predictably batting their eyelashes in his direction in recent times, and it wouldn’t be a big surprise to see Bellerin return to Spanish shores.
