Arsenal have announced that club legend Thierry Henry has returned to their Hertfordshire training complex to maintain his fitness during the MLS off-season. The French striker, who is currently with New York Red Bulls, was pictured wearing the number two kit during his session with the current squad.
The news was confirmed on Arsenal's official website on Friday morning, but there is no indication that Henry will make a playing return for his former side, as he did on loan in January 2012. Henry is Arsenal's all-time leading goalscorer with 228 goals.
The 37-year-old is seeing out his career with the New York Red Bulls, but is using Arsenal's facilities to stay in shape while the MLS season is on hiatus. The club posted images of Henry at their training ground, sporting the Gunners' kit, on their official website.
Arsenal's statement read: 'The legendary striker, now with New York Red Bulls, is maintaining his fitness levels with the current squad while MLS is in its close season.'
