Thierry Henry has completed his free transfer from Barcelona to the New York Red Bulls, the MLS club confirmed on their website.
The France  striker signed a "multi-year contract" although no further details were given.

Henry said: “This marks an exciting new chapter in my career and life,

“It is an honour to play for the New York Red Bulls. I am fully aware of the team’s history and my sole goal during my time here is to help win the club its first championship."

Henry is expected to make his debut in a friendly against Tottenham Hotspur at the Red Bulls Stadium on July 22.

"It is without question that Thierry Henry is one of the most successful and recognisable soccer players over the past 15 years," said Dietmar Beiersdorfer, Head of Red Bull Global Soccer. "We are thrilled that Thierry has decided to come to New York to help the Red Bulls compete for championships this year and for years to come.

"His international pedigree is second to none and he is a proven winner."

"Thierry is not only a world class player who will undoubtedly improve our squad, but he has shown most importantly throughout his career that he is a winner," added Erik Soler, New York general manager and sporting director.

"He has made it clear to us that he is committed in the short and long term to help in our vision of making our organisation the premium franchise in Major League Soccer."

He is Arsenal’s all-time leading goal-scorer, having netted 226 times between 1999-2007, and spent the past three seasons at Barcelona, the first two of which were successful.

Last season, however, was disappointing and he was widely expected to leave the club.

Henry was heavily criticised for handling the ball in the build up to William Gallas’s winning goal in a World Cup play-off against Ireland, which led France into an ultimately embarrassing finals campaign in South Africa.

He has scored a record 51 goals from France
