Arsenal line up Henry bid !!!

Arsenal are apparently lining up a bid for Wolves attacking midfielder Karl Henry. The player who only joined Wolves a year ago from Stoke for £100,000 is attracting the interest of several Premier League clubs but it is thought that Arsenal have the edge because of Wolves boss Mick McCarthy supposed interest in swapping the player with Nicklas Bendtner of Arsenal.

The People report that a deal could be done involving Bendtner going to Wolves on loan and Arsenal a sum of cash for the permanent signing of the 24 year old. Bendtner has failed to grab a first team place in the Arsenal team after spending last season on loan at then Championship side Birmingham.

Liverpool are also said to be interested in the player and it will be interesting to see who he might join in January. He has scored once in ten appearances for Wolves this season but his overall contribution has been impressive. Henry has only signed a new contract at the club which will keep him at Molineux until 2011.
