Real Madrid to offer £25M for Arsenal's Henry


Real Madrid have rebuilt their relationship with Arsenal as they continue their pursuit of Thierry Henry.

Real have agreed not to make any public comments over the Frenchman until after the Champions League final following recent talks with Arsenal intermediaries.
The Gunners were furious with comments made by ex-Real president Fernando Martin over his interest in Henry and Cesc Fabregas and were threatening to break off all contact.
But the two clubs have again begun talking and it's understood Real are ready to pay £25 million to sign Henry - who will only have a year left on his deal next month.
Henry will earn a cool £6 million-a-year if he chooses Real, which have been speaking with striker's representatives since January.
