The young football player studied for several years at the Dynamo football school, after which he decided to continue his studies at the BATE club in the city of Borisov. When Alexander was seventeen years old, he signed a professional contract with the Borisov team, in 1999, for the first time he entered the field of big football and even won the Belarusian championship.
The delightful actions of the midfielder on the field are notcould escape from the gaze of foreign observers, and the following year the player was invited to the German "Stuttgart", where he went with the assistance of the manager Shpilevsky. Together with him, his younger brother Vyacheslav also moved - the club bought out the contracts of both players for 150 thousand euros. It was in the German team that the footballer grew to the top level.
Not directly involved in the main teamAlexander Hleb continued to show zeal on training sparring, which could not be overlooked by the head coach of Stuttgart Magat, who eventually entrusted him with a place in the base. Alexander honestly worked out a five-year contract. Having spent more than 170 official matches for the team, the player scored more than three dozen goals, earning the glory of the best raspasovschika German championship.
Upon termination of the contract with the German clubAlexander decided to apply their professional skills in one of the top clubs in the English Premier League - London "Arsenal", which paid "Stuttgart" for the transfer of the player 15 million euros. Alexander debut as part of the Gunners in 2005 marred by trauma, and even rumors about his imminent return to Germany, but the following season the player still managed to gain a foothold at the base, began to show admirable game and soon became one of the team leaders.
