Former Arsenal and Barcelona star Aleksandr Hleb has announced his retirement.

The 38 year-old has confirmed his decision to hang up the boots during a documentary on his career.

Speaking in ‘Our Hleb’, the midfielder said: “I thought a lot, sought advice, but also decided internally after this season that it was enough.”

Hleb’s last club was Belarussia’s Isloch Minsk.

The Belarussian had three outstanding years with Arsenal from 2005 to 2008 before joining Barcelona.
