Dalmau revealed that during preparations in 2009, a then-Barcelona player poured alcohol into an isotonic drink. According to reports, it was the Belarusian midfielder Aliaksandr Hleb. "He knew he would leave in two or three days. While we were all drinking Gatorade, he added a bit of alcohol to his bottle," recounted Dalmau, who was then a member of the youth setup of the Catalan giant. Hleb arrived at Barcelona from Arsenal in 2008 for around 17 million euros, as a major signing. However, he never managed to live up to expectations. Although he was part of the generation that won the Champions League, La Liga, and the Copa del Rey in the 2008/09 season, he played only 36 matches for Blaugrana. During his contract with Barcelona, he went on loan three times—to Stuttgart, Birmingham, and Wolfsburg—before mutually terminating his contract with the club in 2012. Interestingly, Hleb later publicly admitted that he regrets leaving Arsenal. "I still can't understand why I left. I had everything—friends, a great coach, and I played for one of the best teams," he said on the "In Lockdown" podcast. During his time in London (2005–2008), Hleb was one of the key players for the Gunners, making 130 appearances with 10 goals and 21 assists. He ended his career in 2020 after stints at clubs in Belarus, Russia, and Turkey, but it seems stories like these from his career will continue to circulate in football corridors for a long time.
