West Ham have made a bid to sign Barcelona striker
Thierry Henry in a move which would see the Frenchman become the
highest-paid player in their history.
West Ham joint chairman David Sullivan has revealed he wants to
sign the former Arsenal striker and is willing to offer him a
two-year deal worth around £75,000 a week, more than £7.5m in
total.
Sullivan told The Sun: "We're trying to assemble a more prolific
strike force at West Ham and I'd love to have Henry here. Our club
is in debt but a striker of his quality and standing would make it
a great deal."
"Henry is still up there with the best. I've made an offer which
would make him the highest-paid player in the club's history. And
it's a serious offer because Henry could walk into almost any
Premier League side."
