The Gunners are understood to have reached an agreement with the 34-year-old
during talks this week and will now seek to ratify the deal with the Frenchman's
club the New York Red Bulls and MLS.The Red Bulls have shown no indication of
wanting to block the two-month move but are understood to be waiting for a final
agreement on the insurance policy before definitively allowing the deal to go
through. According to Goal.com, Henry will wear the No.12 shirt in his second
spell at the club due to the fact his old No.14 shirt is taken by Theo
Walcott.Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger made his move for Henry after deciding he
needed cover when Gervinho and Marouane Chamakh go to the Africa Cup of Nations
next month.  During his stay, Henry will provide support for Captain Robin van
Persie in attack and is likely to be eligible for seven Premier League fixtures,
plus FA Cup matches and the first leg of Arsenal's Champions League last 16 tie
with AC Milan. Henry is Arsenal's all-time leading scorer, having netted 226
times in eight years after joining from Juventus in 1999.(Goal.com)
