Barcelona unveils King Henry

June 26, 2007

France striker Thierry Henry completed his 24.0 million ($32.30 million) move from Arsenal to Barcelona on Monday saying that he has come to the club to play a style of football he had always admired.

Henry, who turns 30 in August, was unveiled at the Nou Camp after passing a medical and signing a four-year deal with the Primera Liga side.

"I'm delighted to be here and so pleased that I will have a chance to show what I can do," Henry told a news conference.

"This is a club that wants to win everything and I will try my hardest to help them achieve that. I'm going to give 100 percent and I'm not going to be putting myself before the club.

"Barcelona play a style of football I've always admired. I want to be part of that and to play in this great stadium and to enjoy some amazing football.
