Hleb to persist in asking Fabregas to join Barca

Barcelona midfielder Alexander Hleb has admitted that he has been trying to persuade former Arsenal team-mate Cesc Fabregas to join him at the Nou Camp.

Spain international Fabregas vowed earlier this week that he would one day like to return to Barca, the club he left to join Arsenal in 2003, and for Hleb that day can not come soon enough.
