Hector Bellerin’s blistering pace is one of his greatest assets.

And from time to time, the topic of racing other sporting speedsters comes up. Sometimes it’s Theo Walcott, sometimes it’s Usain Bolt - but it’s always tongue in cheek.

This week, Hector answered a question about the Olympic 100m champion by joking that he was "waiting for that phone call from Jamaica. I challenged him [Bolt] a while ago and he said maybe after Rio. So I'm just waiting now, I need to push him!“

Arsene Wenger was asked about Bellerin v Bolt at his press conference on Friday.

“Well, that is a bit ambitious [for Hector]!” the boss responded with a smile.

"Usain Bolt loves football but I think he’s still too quick for Hector!”
