Theirry Henry leaves Arsenal for Barcelona

The Arsenal talisman, Theirry Henry has completed the transfer to Barcelona. Two season's before when Arsenal reached the UEFA Champion's League finals, Barcelona were interested in Theirry Henry and finally Barcelona have signed Henry.

Last year, Theirry Henry committed his future at Arsenal after signing a four year deal but lot of things have changed since then like David Dean's departure from Arsenal. Theirry Henry has suffered from injury most of the season and it was a bad season for Henry . Theirry Henry's exit from Arsenal might have to do with a lot of other things rather than just David Deans departure. Arsenal haven't shown any signs of challenging for the league or the champion's league titles , I know the team is still young but Henry is growing old and he wants to win the champion's league which could take some years for this Arsenal team to achieve that. So that might have also affected his decision to leave for Barcelona. I am really surprised by the decision Henry has made though.

Arsenal sold Thierry Henry for mere £16 million , that is a bargain price for Barcelona . Henry is the captain and the record goal scorer for Arsenal and that price is just not right. Darren Bent is currently valued at £17 million and Arsenal sell henry for just 16 million? This is a bad deal for Arsenal as they loose their top goal scorer and get a price lower that a mediocre striker Darren Bent.

Anyways , the deal has been done and there is no point in worrying about it now. Listen to Henry's Interview before leaving for Barcelona also read Emotional salute to the Gunners by Thierry Henry. If you missed the Henry's press conference as a Barcelona player , you can watch it here.

Thierry Henry passed the Barcelona Medical test and the deal is done and dusted with. Now all we can do is look back at Theirry Henry's time with Arsenal and admire the brilliant moments. You can view Henry's Arsenal career in photos.

I wish Thierry Henry best of luck for his career at Barcelona and I hope he will win the Champion's League finally.
