Five reasons why Arsenal youngster Hector Bellerin is the Premier League’s best right-back

Posted by

Most players that come from the Barcelona youth academy tend to make an impact on the game in one way or another, and young Arsenal star Hector Bellerin is no different.

Clearly still raw, he is undoubtedly still learning the finer points of the game, but his talent has already seen him brush off an established France international and an emerging England under-21 star to maintain a foothold in Arsene Wenger’s first team.

And below are five points that highlight why we think the Spaniard is the Premier League’s best right-back right now.

5. Pace

Bellerin is frighteningly fast…so much so that he beat Theo Walcott’s record sprint time for 40m at Arsenal, running it in at 4.42s.

That means the youngster is capable at running at 32.4km/h, which is a number that has only been bested by seven players in the football world.
