No sooner after selling Ronaldinho to AC Milan, Barça have completed the signing of Arsenal's Belarusian midfielder Alexander Hleb for a fee of €15 million with a further €2 million in performance based clauses.

Hleb has signed for 4 years and has a release clause set at €90 million.

Speaking at his presentation, Hleb said "I love this team, I will give my best and I want to win everything with Barça."

When asked which position he would be playing in for Barça, the 27 year old replied "I am willing to play in any position, even in goal if necessary."

Hleb now becomes new manager Pep Guardiola's 5th new signing ahead of the new season.
