"Thank you Barcelona for making my dream come true"

Hector Bellerin did not get much playing time at Barcelona but said an emotional farewell to the fans and the club.

"Thank you Barcelona for making my dream come true. I want to thank my teammates, the coach and all the staff for everything. I send you all my best wishes," the former Betis and Arsenal player wrote.

The defender played seven competitive matches for the Catalan club but he was never a key player for Xavi Hernandez.

Pedro Porro's departure facilitated Bellerin's arrival at Sporting and the Spanish footballer hopes to get more playing time and a more prominent role in the Portuguese side.
