Barca boss, Luis Enrique, is desperate to bring him back to La Liga as they reportedly feel that Alex Vidal is not a suitable replacement for Dani Alves, who joined Italian champions Juventus over the summer.

Barcelona are preparing a bid to re-sign Arsenal star Hector Bellerin in the January transfer window according to The Sun.

Barcelona’s vice president Jordi Mastre even hinted that Barce will bid for Bellerin.

Since, the 21-year-old has become a Spain worldwide and a fixture in Arsene Wenger’s teams – a fact that hasn’t gone unnoticed by Mestre, who could be keen to bring him back someday.

Speaking to SPORT the club’s vice president praised the Spanish worldwide right-back suggesting he’d like to bring him back to the club he left at 16.

The right back has done exceptionally well since breaking into the first team and the club will need to tie up a contract for the player as soon as possible.

“Look at the examples of Fabregas, Pique, [Jordi] Alba and Denis Suarez”.

He’s now considered to be the Frenchman’s main right-back, with his blistering pace making him one of the Premier League’s top players in that position.

Arsenal will most certainly be looking to stave off the advances of Barcelona once again in the winter and Bellerin does have three years remaining on his current deal at the Emirates Stadium. I hope the same thing will happen with (Sergi) Samper, too.

Hector Bellerin has become a regular in Arsene Wenger’s squads.

“It’s positive that they get minutes at other clubs. It is a dynamic which has always provided good results for players that carry the Barça DNA in their blood”.
