Samuel Eto'o has again declared he'd love to play alongside Arsenal striker Thierry Henry at Barcelona next season.
"It's very simple - Barca are one of the biggest clubs in the world and Thierry is one of the best strikers in the world," the prolific Cameroon international told L'Equipe.
"His place is at Barca. All the great players should play for great clubs. For me, there is not the slightest doubt.
"The only problem is (Barca coach Frank) Rijkaard - it's him who makes the team."
Eto'o revealed he and Henry often talk on the phone but admitted he has not been urging his friend to leave Arsenal and move to Spain.
"We don't speak about it ever," he said. "What right have I got to influence him?
"Titi is a friend. It's not Barcelona that's brought us together. And besides, one doesn't play football forever.
"There is life outside football. There are other things we do together."
