By Francisco Acedo Last updated: 2nd July 2009
Barcelona's Alexander Hleb has received transfer offers from England and Germany but is happy at Camp Nou, according to the midfielder's agent.
The former Arsenal player has struggled for first-team football in the Catalan capital since quitting the Premier League last summer.
Stuttgart, where Hleb played for five seasons before joining the Gunners in 2005, are keen on a reunion, while Aston Villa have been mentioned as admirers.
The 28-year-old's representative claims he has been approached by clubs around Europe, but insists his client is content with European champions Barcelona after being given assurances.
Uli Ferber told Sport: "We have four or five offers from England and Germany.
"The club knows this but sporting director (Txiki Beguiristain) has told me that Alexander has a guaranteed place in the squad and that is decided by the coach (Pep Guardiola).
"Hleb is happy at Barcelona."
