Hector Bellerin is set to become the latest Arsenal player to ask for his contract to be terminated prematurely, after Edu spoke publicly about the policy.
The Spaniard has been with the Gunners for more than a decade, having signed as a 16-year-old from Barcelona ’s academy. In that time, he has made more than 200 appearances, winning three FA Cups and as many Community Shields.
But Bellerin, now 27, is now a man on the peripheries at the Emirates, having fallen down the pecking order since the 2019 appointment of manager Mikel Arteta. Takehiro Tomiyasu and Cedric Soares are both in front of him when it comes to starting, with Ben White also an option to play on the flank.
