Career in Pictures: Arsenal legend Thierry Henry

Barcelona Bid

In June 2007, a surprising turn of events saw Arsenal ace Henry complete a transfer to FC Barcelona, after eight years in North London.

The La Liga giants bought the Gunners hero for a reported £16.1m, with the striker putting pen to paper on a four-year contract at the Nou Camp.

Henry scored 49 goals in 121 games for the Spanish side, winning two La Liga titles, the UEFA Champions League, the UEFA Super Cup, the FIFA Club World Cup, the Copa del Rey and the Supercopa de Espana in three years at the club.

He joined New York Red Bulls in July 2010.
