Henry wants to play in the US one day

Asked about the rumours linking him with a move to the Major League Soccer (read more here), Barcelona forward and French international Thierry Henry (31) has said in an interview with American newspaper The New York Times that he hopes it will be possible in the future:

"The other day, playing in the Rose Bowl, that was outstanding. The crowd responded so well. It was just brilliant. I'm a Barcelona player now. Whenever I talk about it, people think the next day I'll be coming to play here. That's not really the case. It's a wish, and I hope that one day it can be done. But I'm enjoying my time in Barcelona, I absolutely love it, but I wish that one day, it can be possible."

Assistant coach wants one or two more transfers

Speaking to Catalan radio station Catalunya Ràdio, Barcelona assistant coach Tito Vilanova has said he thinks that more transfers are needed:

"We would need one or two more transfers. Last season, we were lucky because few players got injured and we could keep our framework in place.

Except at the end of the season, but then we were again lucky to have several players who can play at more than one position and take up more than one role. But even so we need to further strengthen the squad."
