Thierry Henry has been linked with a sensational switch to Manchester City Football Club.

It was heavily speculated in the summer that Barcelona want to take Robinho from Eastlands, and they may well make a move for the Brazilian in the New Year.

The former Real Madrid star would be eligible to play for the Catalan giants in the UEFA Champions League, due to the Blues non-appearance in European football this season.

The News of the World claim City would want £30million for Robinho, but they would be willing to take Henry as part of the deal when the transfer window reopens in January.

The France international enjoyed a fine campaign as Barca won the Treble last season and would unlikely want to leave, especially for an English club which isn’t his beloved Arsenal.
