Arsenal star was in training this morning despite claims he is injured
ARSENAL defender Hector Bellerin apparently trained this morning despite reports suggesting the Spaniard had suffered an ankle injury.
Hector Bellerin has started all of Arsenal's Premier League games so far this season
Bellerin, who was part of Spain’s senior squad at Euro 2016 earlier this summer, is currently on international duty with his country's Under-21 side.
But he was forced off in the 88th minute of a 3-0 win against San Marino on Wednesday night.
Spanish newspaper Marca claimed the 21-year-old received a blow to the ankle and would be sent for scans.
However, beIN Sports reporter David Cartlidge claims the youngster was in training this morning, allaying fears of an ankle injury.

He tweeted: "Hector Bellerin training as normal with Spain U-21 this morning. No injury issue despite reports."
Bellerin, who has started all seven of Arsenal's Premier League games this season, could yet face Estonia's Under-21 side on Monday.
The news will be a relief for Arsenal boss Arsene Wenger, with fellow right-back Carl Jenkinson only recently returning to training after knee injury and Mathieu Debuchy out of favour.
