Arsenal defender set to leave the club this summer - Fabrizio Romano

Arsenal defender Hector Bellerin will leave the club when the transfer window reopens, reputed journalist Fabrizio Romano has claimed.

The Spaniard has spent his entire playing career with the Gunners, but appears set for a departure in the next few months.

Bellerin's game time has reduced as the season has progressed, and he has featured in just one of the previous six league games.

According to Romano, the north London club are prepared to cash in on the right-back, but have yet to identify a suitable replacement.

Brighton & Hove Albion's Tariq Lamptey has been heavily linked, but he is currently out with a serious hamstring injury.

Inter Milan's Achraf Hakimi has also been on the radar, but the Moroccan recently affirmed his commitment to the Serie A side.

The Gunners are likely to demand around £30m for Bellerin, who was on the radar of Paris Saint-Germain last summer.

Bellerin has just over two years remaining on his Gunners contract.
