Barcelona new boy Alexander Hleb is ready to incur the wrath of old club Arsenal by hinting that Cesc Fabregas could join him at the Nou Camp.
Hleb secured his move to Barcelona earlier this week after deciding to leave Arsenal for a new challenge.
The Belarus international says former Gunners team-mate Fabregas has told him a lot about Barca having come through the youth ranks at the Catalan outfit before making the move to Arsenal.
Hleb claims Fabregas is still a big fan of Barcelona and he believes there is a possibility the pair could be reunited at Camp Nou.
"He [Fabregas] told me lots of things [about Barcelona], his time in the academy with players like Pique, Messi and so on," Hleb told Barcelona's official website.
"He loves this club, and though he's at Arsenal, who knows, maybe one day he'll come back here."

Alexander Hleb: Greedy or just stupid?
Its been barely five minutes since Alex Hleb has left our football club and already he has been seen kissing the Barcelona badge twice and has told the press that Cesc Fabregas could join him at Barca soon, this coming from a player who had his heart set on playing for Inter Milan.
Hleb took three seasons to work out it was too busy in London and as far as I know Hampstead isn’t that loud?
Hleb has made himself look like a fool in England in my opinion and something Gooners will never forget. Hleb only really had one very good season at Arsenal. He was good during the Champions League campaign that saw us reach the final however last season was when everyone took note.
In his first few seasons, he seemed intimidated playing along side Theirry Henry, and when Henry wanted the ball, Hleb usually gave it. When Henry moved on, Hleb become a little more confident and even shot a few times, does this mean he has developed as a player or when Henry or Messi ask for the ball, Hleb will give it again?
I personally think Arsenal can live without Hleb easily. Hleb is not Henry, nor Vieira, nor Pires, nor Bergkamp etc, he is not even half the players I have just mentioned and the new kid Nasri seems to be a good player and dubbed the next Zidane, which in itself is some mantle to fill.
If any Arsenal fans are worried about the absence of Hleb, I urge them not to be, I was concerned when Henry and Vieira went but we coped so well so I am convinced the same will be with Hleb.
