Bellerin ‘considering move’ to join Guardiola’s City revolution

Arsenal defender Hector Bellerin is believed to be interested in joining Pep Guardiola’s Manchester City this summer.

According to Barcelona-based Mundo Deportivo, the defender previously had no interest in joining the Citizens until the announcement of Guardiola’s arrival, which has got him thinking about what life at the north West club may be like.

The talented Spaniard has a number of years left on his contract, meaning Arsene Wenger would not have to sell him in any case scenario.

Bellerin is valued at around €51m, a fairly whopping number considering he is a full-back and with Bacary Sagna on the wrong side of 30 and Pablo Zabaleta expected to leave the club this summer, Guardiola may be interested in acquiring his compatriot – who would certainly provide a long-term option.

As usual, it seems difficult that this is a move that would be believable considering the circumstances, Bellerin has, on a number of occasions, admitted he is happy at Arsenal and even when Barcelona expressed their interest in signing him, didn’t bat an eyelid.

It seems the only thing that could tempt the 21-year-old into a move away from north London would be if City offer him wages that he can’t turn down, although they’ll have to agree a fee with Wenger first, which really does not seem likely.
