Moyes in bid to land Henry

DAVID MOYES has made a cheeky bid to sign Arsenal legend Thierry Henry.

The cash-strapped Everton boss saw the French superstar striker at The Emirates on Saturday where he was a guest as the Gunners celebrated their 125th birthday.

And he wasted no time in seeing if Henry, training with Arsenal during the US close-season, fancied joining Everton.

Moyes revealed: "I saw some fantastic players and I acknowledged them. I asked Thierry Henry on the way in, he'll tell you. I said if he wants a game to let me know."

Moyes is desperate to add a cutting edge to his side. He said: "We're trying, we're looking round the club to see if we can solve that. We have done it with some young players and tried to look at other solutions.

"It's a manager's job to find it if you can't get it from anywhere else."

One option could be Conor McAleny, 19, who came on as a substitute at Arsenal and nearly scored.

Moyes said: "He's energetic and quick. That's why we gave him the nod over someone else in that period of the game."
