Winger Alexander Hleb has said that the Premiership is the best competition in the world and that he would find it hard to leave it.

The player's agent is reportedly offering Hleb's services to clubs on the continent.

And Hleb has admitted that whilst his first year in England was not the best (citing loneliness), he has grown to love the fast-paced competition for what it is.

The Belarus international said: "I have learned in England that there is still so much to improve.

"I have always dreamed of playing in a great club. Now I have learned that it is not so easy and a lot of work.

"The first year was a killer. I felt very lonely.

"It was clear that the Premier League would be a challenge - but with this pace, I have not expected this.

"The Bundesliga is still a good league, but a season in England feels like two in Germany.

"I will tell you an example: When I was here at the beginning, everything went chop chop, so fast. The pace was madness, even in training.

"I look for the ball in front of me, then where I can play it - when I looked down again the ball was gone.

"The English league is the best league in the world."


Maybe he's not leaving.
