Do Not Sell My Personal Information
Arsenal star Hector Bellerin mocked Piers Morgan on Twitter after he and Jeremy Corbyn shut the TV presenter out of a conversation.
The former CNN news anchor revealed how the Arsenal defender and the Corbyn exchanged in Spanish so Morgan couldn’t understand what they were saying.
The TV host, Corbyn and Bellerin were all present at the GQ Men of the Year awards, during which the Labour leader presented Stormzy with the best solo artist prize.
At the after party for the event at the Tate Modern in London, Morgan spotted Bellerin and Corbyn exchanging in conversation.

According to Morgan’s Daily Mail column, the polarizing 52 year-old approached the pair, but they quickly began conversing in Spanish to shut Morgan out.
He wrote: “Later, fellow Arsenal fan Jeremy Corbyn came over to speak to him. When I tried to interrupt, the Labour leader – whose wife is Mexican – promptly switched to fluent Spanish to shut me out of the conversation.”
Mr Morgan then asked Corbyn what he had said to the right-back.
He wrote: “Corbyn smirked. ‘I told him to please send Arsène Wenger my very best and assure him he continues to have my full support, even if he’s lost yours, Piers. In fact, particularly because he’s lost yours…’”
Morgan says he then replied to Mr Corbyn: “He’s lost mine because we keep losing. You and Wenger are the only losers in football and politics to keep their job… no wonder you love him.”
Hector Bellerin took to Twitter to wind up the Arsenal fan…
