Inter patron Massimo Moratti has again admitted that Arsenal striker Thierry Henry would be a dream signing for his club.
The Nerazzurri are in the race to net the Frenchman should he quit Highbury this summer and Henry’s exploits against Juventus on Tuesday have underlined his status as one of the world’s best.
Inter are expected to sign a striker for the new campaign and Moratti is ready to spend big when it comes to the former Monaco star – even if he wants to end this season in style first.
“Henry is a great champion, but to talk about him now would be like talking of a dream,” the oil baron stated.
“For the moment, our primary thoughts are with the players we have already because they can help us win something important.
“As for the rest, a lot will depend on Henry’s own desire and intentions. Anything can happen between now and the end of the season.”
Henry is assessing his future at the Premiership club after spending seven highly successful years with the outfit.
Now 28, Henry moved to England after a brief spell at Juventus where he scored three goals in 16 games from a wide midfield position.
Inter are clearly prepared to make Henry an offer even if his most likely destination, should he leave Arsenal, seemingly remains Spanish champions Barcelona.
