The 20-year-old signed for the Gunners in 2011 and plied his trade in the youth team and on loan at Watford.
But this season, the young right-back has been revelation
for manager Arsene Wenger, taking his first team
opportunity due after an injury crisis and establishing
himself in the side making 18 appearances in all competitions.
Following his success, the Spaniard believes that if he stayed
at the Nou Camp, he may not have gotten a chance.
He told Marca: "I got the chance and I took it. Wherever
you are, you have to work.
"If I'd stayed at Barcelona, I don't know if I'd have made
it to the elite, you just never know.
"I've worked as hard as I could and always had the
mentality of reaching the top. Whether I was in one place or
another, I'd have done the same."
