Hleb Agrees To Join Inter

12 04 2008

Arsenal star Alexander Hleb has agreed to join Inter in the summer, according to reports in the Italian media.

The Nerazzurri have been heavily linked with the skilful Belarusian in recent weeks, and indeed there were reports last month that the player held secret talks with Inter officials prior to Arsenal’s Champions League game with Milan at San Siro.  

This was later denied by Inter, however sources this morning are claiming that Hleb has agreed to join the Nerazzurri in time for next season.

The 26-year-old is said to have agreed on a five-year contract worth three million euros per season.

Inter will pay Arsenal a rather reasonable-looking 14 million euros for the player who will be Luis Figo’s replacement on the left hand side of midfield.

Figo’s contract at San Siro runs out at the end of this campaign, and he will either retire from football, or see out his remaining years in the Major League Soccer in America.

Another player who has been heavily linked with replacing Figo at Inter in recent weeks is Sevilla’s Diego Capel.
