BARCELONA (SW) - Aliaksandr Hleb has left Arsenal on the best possible terms by praising his ex – manager Arsene Wenger.

Hleb’s ₤12 million transfer from Arsenal to FC Barcelona has just been completed.

The transfer however was not without controversy. The Belarusian playmaker was accused in the media of undermining both his manager Arsene Wenger and team mate Cesc Fabregas.

Hleb, in an interview with The Guardian, denied such accusations and blamed the press for having made them.
