Barcelona forward Thierry Henry has denied he is unsettled in Spain.

The 30-year-old admitted earlier this week he was "not happy" because he does not see his two-year-old daughter as often as he would like following his divorce last year shortly after his transfer to the Nou Camp from Arsenal.

But a statement released on behalf of the player read: "There have been recent press reports suggesting that Thierry Henry is unhappy at FC Barcelona. This is not true.

"Thierry loves Spain and the vibrant city of Barcelona. He is thoroughly enjoying playing for the club and has a lot of time for the fans.

"The only downside he experiences by being in Spain is that, due to his hectic playing schedule, he cannot see his daughter as much as he would like to."

The statement will be welcomed by Barca coach Frank Rijkaard after Henry's earlier words fuelled intense speculation about his future.

"I've got some personal problems and my daughter is the most important thing in my life," Henry was quoted as saying.

"I'm not happy because a father that only sees his daughter five times in the last eight months cannot be.

"If you know what it is to have a daughter then you can imagine what it is like. I'm not asking you to cry for me, only that people don't talk for me."

Former Arsenal striker Henry also suggested his form - he has scored seven goals in 19 Primera Liga games - has not been helped by playing in an unfamiliar position.

"I played for eight years in a team in a specific position and now I'm at another club in another position with a different tactical system," he said.

"It's time to stop comparing the Barcelona Henry with the Arsenal Henry. This is the Henry that you are seeing here."

Barcelona are second in La Liga, eight points behind bitter rivals Real Madrid.
