Arsenal captain Thierry Henry's shock move from Nike to Reebok is being seen as a step closer to the Frenchman joining Real Madrid.

Arsenal captain Thierry Henry's shock move from Nike to Reebok is being seen as a step closer to the Frenchman joining Real Madrid.
 
Reebok are owned by adidas, which have a close association with Real Madrid and can count David Beckham, Zinedine Zidane and Raul as among it's stable.

Real's great rivals for Henry, Barcelona, are a Nike club and a potential move to the Nou Camp will be complicated by the Arsenal striker's defection.

Henry insists he's still not made a decision over where he will be playing next season, but his commitment to Reebok, which kicks in immediately after the World Cup, suggests his future is nearer Madrid than Barcelona.
