Thierry Henry will not play in the Copa de Final and he is facing a fitness race to be able to appear in the Champions League final in Rome.

The French international suffered a blow to his right knee during the game against Real Madrid and meant that he was unable to play against Chelsea at Stamford Bridge in midweek.

According to club medics, Henry has suffered from an anterior cruciate ligament strain in his right knee and is undergoing specific treatment to try and ensure that he can play in Rome against Manchester United.

Four games

Henry will miss the Copa del Rey final against Athletic Club as well as a hat-trick of league games against Villarreal, Mallorca and Osasuna.
