Arsenal star Hector Bellerin a big money Barcelona target, but deal may be reliant on Arsene Wenger exit

Barcelona have made Arsenal star Hector Bellerin their No 1 summer transfer target as they look to solve a deepening crisis at right-back.

According to Spanish publication Mundo Deportivo, Bellerin, who was originally plucked from La Masia by Arsene Wenger, has been highlighted as the perfect acquisition by Nou Camp officials looking to fix a problem caused by Luis Enrique.

The 21-year-old has become a key player for the Gunners in recent years, earning a place in the PFA Team of the Year last season and recently sealing a long-term £100,000-a-week contract as a reward.
