Henry jets 5,000 miles to visit Muamba

Arsenal legend Thierry Henry jetted in from the United States to pay Fabrice Muamba a visit in hospital on Wednesday afternoon.

Henry, currently playing for New York Red Bulls, flew across the Atlantic to spend little over an hour with the midfielder and his family at the London Chest Hospital.
The former Arsenal striker played for Red Bulls against Real Salt Lake in Salt Lake City on Sunday night, but proceeded to embark on a series of flights totalling more than 5,000 miles to visit his former team-mate.
Henry had reportedly spoken to the 23-year-old only a week before the Tottenham game, where he collapsed after going into sustained cardiac arrest. Henry is believed to be a close friend of the Bolton midfielder, dating back to their time together at Arsenal.
Muamba has continued to show signs of improvement, chatting with friends and family throughout the day.
