Asked if any current Barcelona players could join a new professional football club in Miami, Marcelo Claure, the Miami-based Bolivian businessman together with whom Barcelona is bidding for a place in the Major League Soccer (MLS), the professional football league in the United States and Canada (read more here), said in an interview with Catalan radio station Ona FM that the name of Barcelona forward and French international Thierry Henry (31) is on the table:

"We have talked with Barça about the possibility that a key player of the first team could come and play in Miami in 2010 and the name that is up is Henry. We've discussed it but Barça will always have the priority. A technical committee will choose the player, they will decide because they are the football experts.

Henry is one of the candidates, I think he could be the ideal person because in interviews with the American media he always says how much he likes the country, but there are other names too."
