Henry extends contract

AFP, London
Arsenal's French striker Thierry Henry has signed a new contract keeping him at Highbury until 2007, a newspaper reported here Saturday.
On the day his team take on Southampton in the FA Cup final the 25-year-old told The Sun: "I had heard one or two stories about me so I thought this was the time to sign. This club is so important to me."
Henry, who had one year of his existing contract to run, added: "I am delighted to pledge my future to this great club.
"I will stay at Arsenal as long as they want to keep me."
Henry joined Arsene Wenger's Premiership runners-up from Juventus for 10.5 million pounds four years ago and has scored 112 times in 179 games for the Gunners.
He has picked up two major awards this season, being voted player of the year by both the Professional Footballers Association and the Football Writers Association.
But he missed out on the Premiership's Golden Boot award that went to Manchester United's Ruud Van Nistelrooy.
The French striker claimed his 24th league goal of the season just seven minutes into his side's 4-0 victory at Sunderland on the last day of the season to draw level with Van Nistelrooy.
But the Dutchman's penalty at Everton meant that it was he who claimed the title of leading scorer.
Wenger though insisted that
Henry's ability to create goals was as important as the number he scored.
"A great player is not a goalscorer, but the one who can provide the chances," he said.
"I think he got the biggest reward, the player of the year, for an individual player, and that's
much more than the Golden Boot."
Meanwhile Henry's international teammate Robert Pires set his sights on a double target - he wants to help Arsenal defend their FA Cup crown and celebrate by signing a new contract with the Londoners.
Pires, speaking ahead of the
Millennium Stadium showpiece, said: "I hope my future is at Arsenal. I want to stay and we will talk after the final.
"There are two weeks before we (France) go away to the Confederations Cup. I expect everything to be okay and I hope to sign a new contract.
"Arsenal are one of the biggest clubs in Europe and that's why I want to stay here," added Pires, 29, who still has two years left on his current deal.
He arrived at Highbury in a six million pounds (9.6 million dollars) move from French club Marseille three years ago and soon became a key member of the trophy-winning team built by the Gunners' French manager.
But he missed last season's FA Cup final win over London rivals Chelsea with a knee ligament injury that also sidelined him from the World Cup.
And with Arsenal having surrendered their Premier League title to Manchester United following a late season slump, Pires is well aware of the importance of beating the Saints.
"It's very important for me and the club to win this year," Pires said. "It's most important that Arsenal win a trophy because we didn't win the championship.
"If we don't win it will be a bad season because at the start we had three objectives. Now there is only the Cup so it's even more important."
And despite Arsenal's 6-1 league thrashing of Gordon Strachan's team at Highbury on May 7, Pires insisted: "We will take
Southampton very, very seriously. They are capable of beating Arsenal so it's necessary to be wary of them."
