German sports weekly paper Sport Bild claims that Barcelona attacker and Belarusian international Alexander Hleb (28) has found a personal agreement with German club Stuttgart.Hleb would sign a one-year loan deal with his former club. Italian sports paper Il Corriere dello Sport confirmed earlier today that Hleb had yesterday decided to reject the offer of Inter Milan and to join Stuttgart instead. Hleb would prefer to return to Germany because he doesn't want to live another year with language problems, as happened last season in Barcelona.

Hleb must have a thick skull and a small grey matter . What is his problem with learning other languages ? It is too bad he is NOT leaving us for good but good riddance anyway !!

Any idea if its a permanent deal? I see they have said we may have to pay inter an extra 4 million euro to compensate. If hleb is leaving for good we may get about 8 million for him so we could cover the inter compensation with that.

It's on loan and we have to compensate Inter with 4,5 millions, so Zlatan's fee goes over 70...

If he can learn german and English, why can't he learn Spanish? It's not that hard.

skanjos: Why should Chyghriynskhij have any language problems? Just because he is Ukrainian? Stoichkov was Eastern European too and he is a Barca legend. Eastern European don't have any more learning difficulties than any other ethnicity.

Indeed, why not back to Arsenal? Although they might prefer some centre forward now. Henry...

I see it more like 50.5mil. Either way with we paying Helb salary on his proposed Inter loan that money has surely been allocated already. Unless ofcourse I was wrong in quoting his 4.5mil salary. I just hope we don't have to pay his salary while he is on his Stuttgart duty tho.
Eto'o as I read the press interview was "bought" by Inter for 20mil, if I'm not mistaken. Txiki said it was a good deal considering the depreciating value with player's age and year-left on contract and that we got him for 24mil back then.

buj Said,
If this deal does not go thru, I do hope you guys give him another chance as was proven by Titi this season after his disastrous first season. Just look how ridiculous it seems now some of the comments made against him last year @ http://fcbtransfers.blogspot.com/2009/07/2008-manchester-united-considering.html

i don't know why everyone seems to think henry's first year was disastrous? he got 20 goals and 17 assists, or the other way round, thats not a bad year, if pedro came in and got those figures i'd be well happy. granted t wasnt as good as this year, but it wasnt bad. hleb on the other hand did not have a good year. don't know what they should do with him but it hurts to think we having to pay inter even more money, we got well and truely raped on this deal.

SJP: Pedro didn't cost us 24 millions (plus three incentives) and 7,5 millions of annual wages. The expectations were high.

Sell helb to Man City they got money and Im sure the Sheiks don't mind what position players they are getting as long as its a good name so they can put him in Goal or something.
