Now Lorenzo Sans says Real Madrid had spoken to Thierry Henry, and at that time the young Thierry Henry, was playing for the French club Monaco, as a winger and not as a striker. Now Lorenzo Sans also said that the contract between Real Madrid and Thierry Henry, and the deal was really done and dusted. Real Madrid even arranged a plane to bring Thierry Henry, to Real Madrid from Monaco. But things were not going to happen that way after all. The father of Thierry Henry gave Real Mad president a surprise visit, and made it crystal clear to Lorenzo Sans, that Thierry Henry would not be joining Real Madrid , and the reason being was that Thierry Henry was very much afraid of the President of Monaco, who was Prince Albert. But Lorenzo Sanz told Thierry Henry's father not to worry , and he would personally speak to the Monaco president and sort things out. In the end the contract was a waste and remained in the draw.
