Barca denies being unsettled
Barcelona forward Thierry Henry has denied he is unsettled in Spain.
The 30-year-old was quoted earlier this week saying he was not happy because he does not see his two-year-old daughter as often as he would like following his divorce last year shortly after his transfer to Camp Nou from Arsenal.
But a statement released on behalf of the player denied he was unhappy in Catalunya.
"There have been recent press reports suggesting that Thierry Henry is unhappy at FC Barcelona. This is not true," read the statement.
"Thierry loves Spain and the vibrant city of Barcelona. He is thoroughly enjoying playing for the club and has a lot of time for the fans.
"The only downside he experiences by being in Spain is that, due to his hectic playing schedule, he cannot see his daughter as much as he would like to."
The statement will be welcomed by Barca coach Frank Rijkaard after Henry's earlier words fuelled intense speculation about his future.
