Bellerin made his international debut in Sunday's 3-1 win over Bosnia-Herzegovina and will face competition from Cesar Azpilicueta and Juanfran for a starting spot in Vicente del Bosque's side.

"I'm available to the coach for whatever is needed - I'm delighted with the experience," Bellerin, 21, told a news conference.
