He played in his side's 2-0 league defeat to Villarreal last weekend and stunned people on social media with his post-match interview. 

Bellerin had a positive attitude in defeat, but it was his accent that got social media talking. 

One tweeted: "This man looks like he dreamt of giving post match interviews in Spanish for a long time."​

A second wrote: "Why is it so strange to hear a Spanish player talk in Spanish???"​

A third added: "How the hell is this the very first time I’ve heard Hector Bellerin speak Spanish and I find it super weird​."

Obviously, Bellerin grew up in Spain, though he developed a hybrid accent during his time at Arsenal.

He was beginning to sound cockney with a Spanish twang. 

But he's fully reverted back to his native tongue have returned home.
