The American club have handed the former Arsenal striker a 4ｽ-year contract.

Henry, 32, 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.

"Knowing Red Bull's significant commitment to soccer locally and internationally, I am confident that my team-mates and I will succeed."

Red Bulls general manager Erik Soler added: "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.

"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."

Henry became Arsenal's record goalscorer before leaving London for the Nou Camp in 2007

要約　世界的に有名なストライカーでフランス代表のアンリがバルセロナからアメリカリーグに移籍することが決まった。これはアメリカリーグのオファーにより決まったものでアンリ本人も活躍することを確信している。アンリは2007年にイギリスのアーセナルで得点記録も作っている。

感想　アンリほどのスーパースターならもっと今いるレベルの高いリーグで活躍できるはずなのでレベルの低いアメリカリーグに移籍してしまうのは残念だ。
