Experienced ex-Holland and Barcelona star, Cruyff and Brazilian Superstar Gaucho Ronaldinho endorse Thierry.


Dutch legend, Johan Cruyff has gladly offered his legendary Number 14 jersey to Thierry Henry if the French International becomes a Barcelona player next season.


Cruyff, who made the Number 14 jersey an invaluable artifact during his playing days at Barca, believes Henry will carry on with the spirit and meet the high standard expected of anyone wearing that number in Barcelona. Cruyff says:

I will be very proud to see such a great player where the Number 14 jersey here in Barcelona. Thierry Henry is a great player and has worn that number himself for many years.

Number 14 also happens to be a vacant number at Barcelona and will be fitting for him. I wore it and will like to see him wear it too.




Brazilian superstar in Barcelona, Gaucho Ronaldinho lends his support to the Dutch legend's words:

Henry and I both like to play in a manner that makes us surge forward. I will like to play along with him at Barca. I can't think of any player in the world who would not want to play with such a great person like Thierry Henry. He is going to adapt really well to the Primera Liga and most importantly, our style of play in Barcelona. Watching him play is a delight and his speed is a great asset.




Thierry Henry had been linked to a move to camp Nou for sometime now, but the deal has not maintained the momentum with which it began.


Recently, the Catalans were linked with Chelsea striker, didier Drogba who they se is a very good replacement for Henry should the French star fail to sign for the Blaugrana before the new season commences.
