Bellerin buys Catalan house as Barcelona switch intensifies

Hector Bellerin looks to be nearing a switch to Barcelona, as he has bought Catalan house and his family has moved back to Spain, the Daily Express reports.

Barce manager Ernesto Valverde wants to bring back the 22-year-old Arsenal defender in order to strengthen the La Liga side’s right-back position.

The Gunners speedster did sign a long-term deal in November of last year, but it seems as if the Spaniard is now putting everything in place for a return to the Nou Camp.

Currently, Bellerin is out on international duty with Spain at the Under-21s European Championship in Poland, but during his absence is hoping that a deal will commence between Arsenal and his former club youth-level club Barcelona.

He is reported to have bought a home back in Catalan, with his family having already made the move back.

It is also thought that talks between the two sides won’t likely start until July, with the process being extensive and complicated.
