The Daily Express claim that Serie A leaders Juventus have joined Antonio Conte’s Inter Milan in the race to sign Arsenal defender Hector Bellerin this summer – and they could sign the right-back for a fee of £27million.
Bellerin, 25, is now regarded as one of the senior players at Arsenal having clocked up just five appearances shy of 200 outings for the Gunners in all competitions. An impressive amount, given his struggles with injury.
The Spain international remains Arsenal’s first-choice on the right side of the defence, but injury has hampered his progress once again this term. Bellerin has clocked up 16 outings in all competitions.
Bellerin, who has three years left on his £110,000-a-week contract (Spotrac), is open to signing a new Arsenal deal but is waiting to see if Mikel Arteta can take the team forward – and perhaps, back into the top four.
