Arsenal's Hector Bellerin plays down Barcelona talk

Bellerin plays down Barcelona talk

Arsenal defender Hector Bellerin has once again played down rumours that he could return to Barcelona this summer.

The Spaniard joined Barcelona as an eight-year-old, but left for Arsenal in 2011 and has since established himself as a key member of Arsene Wenger's starting team.

Barcelona, who face Sevilla in the Copa del Rey final on Sunday night, are reportedly keen on re-signing the 21-year-old, but Bellerin has insisted that he is "very happy" at Arsenal.

"I say this every year. For me, my home is in England. I've lived here for many years, I have my family here and I'm living with my girlfriend. I'm very happy here, so I don't see myself anywhere other than Arsenal," Bellerin told the Support Soccer Academy.

Bellerin made 44 appearances for Arsenal during the 2015-16 campaign.
