Barca: Henry move unlikely but Kewell is appealing

BARCELONA’S new sporting director, Txiki Begiristain, has all but ruled out a move for Arsenal’s French striker Thierry Henry.

Barca press secretary Juanjo Castillo sparked speculation that Henry could be on his way to Catalonia, following the club's failure to land England captain David Beckham, by stating: "Henry is one of the players we're hoping to talk to this week.

"We have to see whether he is interested in coming. Everyone likes Henry and he's a great player."
