Wenger believes the Frenchman’s return will be win-win for both Arsenal and Henry.

"You cannot take away from people what they have done, and what he has delivered will stay forever," Wenger said. "Thierry is a world-class player and is a good addition because he knows the club, he knows the league, and it is only positive.”
