Belarus winger Alexander Hleb will return to Barcelona from a loan spell at Stuttgart, his agent has said.
Hleb joined Barcelona in 2008 from Arsenal for an initial fee of 15 million euros ($18.6 million). After a disappointing first season he was loaned out to his former club Stuttgart.
His agent Uli Ferber told Catalan radio station COM on Saturday that "his plans are to return to Barcelona."
If he does return to the Spanish club, the player will have to report for preseason training on July 15. He is currently working with a personal trainer on his fitness after undergoing surgery for a broken nose.
