Thierry Henry: Miserable year at the Nou Camp
THIERRY HENRY will be allowed to leave Barcelona this summer – and wants to come back to London to join Chelsea.
Henry has had a miserable year at the Nou Camp since leaving Arsenal for £16million and last week’s Champions League semi-final exit to Manchester United was the final straw. Now 30, Henry wants to return to London – Barcelona are ready to let him go if they get the right price – and his representatives, Express Sport can reveal, have made initial contact with Chelsea.The idea of hooking up with his French international team-mate Nicolas Anelka at club level excites former Gunners hero Henry and Chelsea are resigned to losing Didier Drogba, with Inter Milan and Real Madrid both tracking the £15m striker.Express Sport understands the initiative this time has come from Henry and Barcelona – not from Chelsea who are interested but have concerns about the Frenchman’s age. Henry still has three years left on his Barcelona contract and one of the key factors in his desire to leave is a wish to see more of his daughter Tea, from his failed two-year marriage to Claire Merry, who will be three years old this month.He said last month that the only club he would come back to England to play for would be Arsenal – where he spent eight brilliant years. But that will not happen after his previously close relationship with manager Arsene Wenger cooled in the latter stages of his spell there. -
is he willing to give up his legendary status at arsenal? i think not! well at least better then joining the spuds though.

gt anelka liao wor....

Well... his daughter is still living in London, Wenger don't need him anymore, He is not happy in Spain, and Chelsea is the only club in London that can afford his weekly salary... So... who knows...

Ai bo Drogba liao mah... -
No point getting older players leh...I feel chelsea should get a a batch of young potential players now.
-
go to spurs
-
barca has way too many strikers and attacking midfielders. It was a mistake to buy henry.
I personally think arsenal should buy back henry if the price is not too steep and cheaper than when they sell henry.
-
henry is not needed.. i hope chelsea sign ribery. van der vaart and daniel alves.. stick with shevchenko anelka..
-
chelsea will be worse off by selling drogba and buying henry.
that means chelsea will have similar players with the likes of kalou, anelka, henry, shevchenko.

Just read an article yesterday that if he went back EPL, it'd only be back to Arsenal. Have previously read similar articles too, so what gives?
All this is just pure speculation as usual.
-
after the experience they had with sheva i seriously doubt chelsea will risk signing another high salaried 30 yr old.

Yeah that was what he said last month... But things may have changes since... and he wants to return to London but other than Chelsea... no one else can afford him...But Roman seems to be losing his interest in football or Chelsea... He didn't even bother to watch their semi-final matches with Liverpool, even at the Bridge... Surprisingly...
