Thierry Henry
Thierry Henry is right now playing for FC Barcelona. Earlier he was in Arsenal. It was during this time, Henry became famous world wide as a striker. Before joining the english club Arsenal, he wasn’t in the best of his forms, nor was he famous as he is now. Things changed so fast with him and everything was pretty favourable. Today, Henry is one of the best strikers, and different clubs are trying to transfer him their clubs. But since he is with FC Barcelona, there is no chance of any transfers with Henry in the near years. Barcelona doesn’t let go of their players that easily.
Henry was born and brought up in Paris, France. At the age of 13, he got an offer from AS Monaco and he was signed to them the same moment. He didn’t think twice before signing because it was really fortune infront of him. And it is really one of the turning points in his career as a footballer. He wouldn’t have become this famous if he didn’t have got that offer from AS Monaco at that time. Soon, Henry made his debut prefessionally. And it was just 4 years after he got signed with AS Monaco. Again after 4 years, he got an opportunity to play for the international team of France. It is his talents and skills that provided him this opportunity to play for his country. And he was in great form at that time. Considering all these aspects of Henry, Juventes got some interest in him and soon they signed him to play for them. But Henry was not so successful playing for Juventes in the wings.
Soon Henry got transferred to the english club Arsenal and it was in this club he got famous as a world class footballer. He was able to boost his skills and play naturally without fearing about anything. This was seen in the matches as well. He started to score goals pretty easily in Arsenal and this provided him with great confidence. Years have past and Henry have broken a lot of records including a record for scoring the most number of goals for Arsenal. He has scored a total of 226 goals for Arsenal. And till now no one was able to break this record. He played for about eight years for Arsenal and after that he got transferred to FC Barcelona.
Henry was transferred to Barca in the year 2007 for a transfer fee of 24 million Euros. Henry continued his form in Barcelona as well. This way he got fans in Spain also. He is a real goal scoring machine to be honest. He has his own style of playing and this has attracted a lot of advertising agencies and thus he has got offers from many marketting companies as well. We can see Henry in the ads of Pepsi, Gillette, Reebok and many others.
