Thierry Daniel Henry (born 17 August 1977 in Les Ulis, Essonne, France) is a French football player who plays as a striker for the French national team, and for the English club Arsenal, where he is the club’s all-time leading scorer in both league matches and all competitions.
Henry has been nominated three times for the FIFA World Player of the Year, finishing runner-up in 2003 and 2004, with the announcement of the 2006 winner to come in Zurich on December. Also, he was named by Pele as one of the top 125 greatest living footballers in March 2004.
He has surpassed Ian Wright to take over as Arsenal’s all-time leading scorer with over 200 goals for the club. In 2006, Henry was the first player to score more than twenty goals in five consecutive seasons (2002-2006). He won the European Golden Boot in both 2004 and 2005 thus making him the first ever player to retain the trophy.
On 19 May 2006, despite months of speculation linking him with Spanish club FC Barcelona, he renewed his contract at Arsenal under a 4-year deal until 2010.
