Arsenal fans have shown their appreciation towards their experienced right-back Hector Bellerin before his side’s exit from the Carabao Cup on Wednesday.

The Spanish defender recently returned to first-team action after rupturing the anterior cruciate ligament in his left knee during the Gunners’ 2-0 win against Chelsea last season. He underwent surgery and sat out the rest of the campaign.
After making his comeback from the long layoff, Bellerin, 24, has illustrated his class with his kind gesture while the two teams were lining up in the tunnel.

As the teams were about to enter the field of play, the Spaniard noticed that the mascot was feeling the Merseyside chills and offered the young man his jacket for when they walked out onto the pitch.
The move from Bellerin was met with high praise from the Emirates faithful as they posted on social media to show their appreciation to him.
