Bellerin said: "When I first played Forest Green Rovers - all I knew about them was that it was a long way from London!

"As I heard more about the club and its work, I knew I wanted to meet them and be part of it.

"So many people feel there's no solution to the world's problems, but Forest Green are already doing plenty - and showing others the way.

"I'm so excited to be part of the FGR family. I'll be helping where I can, supporting people who want to change the world for the better."

Vince, chairman of Forest Green since 2010, said: "I like Hector's approach, his personal journey and the things he's trying to do - they make sense.

"I'm looking forward to working with him on FGR and this wider agenda we have a shared interest in."
