Hleb had a torrid time at the Camp Nou

Alexander Hleb wasn’t one of those signings that Barcelona would be proud of. He was signed from Arsenal in 2008, but, Hleb has made only 19 LaLiga appearances for Barcelona in his four years with the club. He was sent on a series of loan spells as he failed to impress at the Camp Nou.

After a disappointing spell in Spain, he moved to Russia with FC Krylia Sovetov Samara. He then moved to Turkey with BATE Borisov. The former Arsenal star played for various clubs in Super Lig and then moved back to FC Krylia Sovetov Samara in 2017. The 37-year-old joined BATE Borisov once again in 2018. Hleb has also played 77 games for his national team, Belarus.
