Barcelona denies deal for Arsenal?s Henry
Barcelona vice president Ferran Soriano has denied claiming the club has agreed to a deal to sign Arsenal striker titi henry(Thierry Henry) in the summer.

Henry’s contract expires in June 2007 and he has yet to sign a new contract with the Premiership club, leading to speculation he could be heading for the Nou Camp.

The rumors gathered pace on Monday when Barcelona daily Sport claimed a deal had already been struck with the French international.

But Soriano said, “We have made no contact with Thierry Henry and no contract has been agreed with him.”

Soriano stressed, though, that the club would be looking to strengthen its squad at the end of the season, and dismissed claims that Portuguese midfielder Deco would be sacrificed to fund new arrivals.

“We do have the financial capacity to make new signings in the summer and we do not have to sell,” he added. “We have no plans to sell Deco.”
