Despite his excellent form, Barcelona striker Thierry Henry may be sold at the end of the season. The Spanish AS website says that the club see this as a way of reducing their payroll.

The 31 year-old French international has a contract with Barca until 2011. He is also considered to be a favourite of manager Josep Guardiola.

However, AS claims that two potential replacements for the former Arsenal striker have already been found - Bayern Munich's Franck Ribery and Bordeaux's Yoann Gourkuff.

Henry really is in fantastic form at the moment. He is in third place of all the strikers included in the FTBL ratings. In the last five matches alone he has earned over 100 points!

Ribery currently has only 46.65 points to his credit. Gourkuff is performing much more successfully - he has 107.55 points, 80 of them earned in the last five matches.
