Barcelona scared off signing Arsenal fullback Hector Bellerin

Barcelona have gone cold on signing Arsenal fullback Hector Bellerin.

The Mirror says according to reports in Spain, who say the Catalans have been told to offer £44million if they are serious about signing the Spaniard.

Bellerin came through Barca's academy and the Spanish giants had hoped to seal a fairytale return for the right-back.

Barcelona have turned their attention to Juventus flier Juan Cuadrado after admitting defeat in their pursuit of Bellerin.

Cuadrado was not a regular starter for Juve last term and new Barca boss Ernesto Valverde sees his attacking style fitting in at the Nou Camp.
