Young attacker Hector Bellerin could be on his way out ofBarcelona's youth academy at the end of the season, as the 16-year-old has received offers from Arsenal, Aston Villa, Chelsea and Manchester United, Sport reports.
The highly-rated winger is considered to be one of the most promising youngsters to emerge from La Masia, and the Catalan giants are keen to hold on to him.
However, the attacker has turned down a contract offer from the Camp Nou club, as he has allegedly set his sights on a move to the Premier League.
The player has yet to officially decide where he wants to continue his career, but is widely expected to agree terms with Arsenal in the upcoming weeks. The Gunners will have to pay Barcelona compensation of €400,000 as part of the deal.
Bellerin follows in the footsteps of players such as Cesc Fabregas, Gerard Pique and Fran Merida, who all previously left Barca's academy for an English adventure.
