Suarez is now officially an Arsenal player, arriving on loan from Barcelona with the option of a permanent deal, and it looks Gooners can have Bellerin to thank for helping the deal go through.
‘I’ve spoken to Hector. He wrote me a message when the rumours started to come out in the press about me joining Arsenal,’ the 25-year-old told Arsenal’s official site.
‘I hope he can recover as soon as possible. It’s a shame that he’s injured because I’d love to play with him, but I’m sure he’ll be back soon.’
