Alexander Hleb is certain to be making a move from the Emirates this summer, with three big name clubs in the chase for the talented Belarus winger.

Hleb’s agent, Niki Spilevski, has revealed that Hleb held talks with Gunners boss Arsene Wenger this week before deciding on a move.

“I can officially confirm that a short time ago Alexander decided that he will leave Arsenal and join another club,” said Spilevski.

“Of course Arsenal and Arsene wanted him to stay but they have accepted the player’s choice.”

The 27-year-old Belarus attacking midfielder has been touted with a move to a number of big clubs, with Inter Milan and Barcelona both also said to be interested.
