Henry Encourages Eze to Make It Count
Thierry Henry surprised Eberechi Eze with a heartfelt message after the England international completed his transfer from Crystal Palace. The French legend told Eze to “make it count” as he begins his new chapter at the Emirates.
A Special Homecoming for Eze
Eze, who previously spent time in Arsenal’s academy, described Henry as one of his inspirations growing up. The £67.5m move marks a return to the club where he first dreamed of making it big.
A Personal Message from a Club Icon
Club legend Ian Wright helped deliver a pre-recorded message from Henry to Eze, leaving the new No.10 visibly surprised.
Henry said:
Welcome to Arsenal. This is not a dream anymore, it’s reality. Make sure you make it count.
Eze’s Debut Could Be Against Liverpool
