Hector Bellerin has completed a free transfer to Barcelona to end his 11-year stay at Arsenal.
The Spaniard has not been part of Mikel Arteta's first team plans at the Emirates Stadium for some time now and spent last season on loan at Real Betis. He still had one year remaining on his contract with the Gunners, but an agreement has been made to allow him to leave on a free transfer as opposed to terminating his contract.
The Gunners retain a 25% sell on clause should the 27-year-old end up leaving Barcelona in the future however football.london. This potentially gives them some money for a player that it has previously looked as though they could lose for nothing while they have been able to get a significant salary off the wage books.
