Arsenal will open talks in the summer with Real Betis regarding the permanent transfer of Hector Bellerin, football.london understands. The 27-year-old is currently on loan from the Gunners after requesting a move away from the club in January.
Bellerin has made 19 appearances in La Liga this season and established himself as a regular in the team. He recently revealed that the decision to join his boyhood club was made after he consulted an analytics company to find the best fit for him.
“I don’t know what people will think, but the projection that was given to me by the big data was that Betis were going to have a very good year this season, so you can see how these machines work," said Bellerin.
