MADRID, Spain -- Thierry Henry is leaving Arsenal to sign with Barcelona in one of European soccer's major transfers of the offseason.

Barcelona will pay $32 million for the 29-year-old forward, who agreed to a four-year contract, Cadena Ser radio and the newspaper El Pais said Friday. Barcelona planned to announce the signing on Saturday.

Henry has been with Arsenal since 1999, scoring a club-record 226 goals in 364 appearances. He helped the Gunners win two English Premier League titles and three Football Association Cups.

I don't see that as a problem. Henry is also the best passer in Arsenal. Plus there are always injuries...

I'm aware but what positions will they play. I'm sure Henry doesn't want to play at the winger position like he did in Juve. Will Ronaldinho move to the midfield?
