Alexander Hleb secured a move to Barcelona earlier this week, and has hinted that Arsenal might lose yet another star player. After Mathieu Flamini, Jens Lehmann, and Gilberto Silva left Arsenal, Hleb has hinted that ex-Arsenal teammate Cesc Fabregas might be joining him at Barcelona.

Hleb claims that Fabregas still admires Barca. Having spent some time in Barcelona's youth system, Fabregas has told Hleb about his admiration for Barcelona and the facilities of the Spanish club, says the Belarus international.

"He told me lots of things, his time in the academy with players like Pique, Messi and so on," Hleb said.

"He loves this club, and though he's at Arsenal, who knows, maybe one day he'll come back here."

Hleb joined Barcelona for only £14.5 million, since the player had the chance to buy-out his contract. To fill his place, Arsenal bought France international Samir Nasri for £13.5 million.
