Henry sells 70,000 shirts
HenryThierry Henry may be counting the cost of his divorce - but Barcelona are laughing all the way to the bank after selling £4million worth of shirts on the back of the French striker.
The Catalan club have sold a staggering 70,000 replica shirts all bearing Henry's name and his No.14 number since landing him from Arsenal in a £16.1m deal in June.
Barca expect that figure to smash through the 100,000 barrier by Christmas if Henry can reproduce the form that made him the most feared striker in the world during his time with the Gunners.
