Belarus international Aliaksandr Hleb (pictured), who is set to join Inter Milan in a bundled trade involving Cameroon and Swede internationals Samuel Eto’o and Zlatan Ibrahimovic, might end up thanking his good fortune as his passage at Barcelona, which he joined after bumper seasons with Arsenal, proved anything but successful: he got lost among the many talented midfielders at the Catalan club and now, with an overall FTBL rating of just 56.38 points, will rank 4th among midfielders at Inter, behind only Argentine Esteban Cambiasso (124.66 points), Nigeria international Sulley Muntari (107.57 points), and Serbian Dejan Stankovic (85.81 points).
Hleb might even end up with an excellent opportunity for more first-team action in which to showcase his obvious football talent and boost his rating. His plank to beat in his first 5 appearances will amount to just 5 rating points. The Belarusian had an average take of 6 rating points per game last season, while his star index stands at 2.6%.
