AS Monaco lost 2-0 this week to Guingamp – the team that is at the bottom of the French Ligue 1. A week after lamenting his team’s lack of desire to win, following a 3-0 defeat at Lyon, Henry still has work to do.

Rumours have been circulating in the football media, in advance of the upcoming January transfer window, that Monaco is looking to sign several top players.

Mousa Dembele, currently with Tottenham Hotspur, is said to be a preferred target of Thierry Henry’s.

Cesc Fabregas is another player linked with Monaco, but the Chelsea midfielder, who played with Henry at Barcelona and Arsenal, is also being sought by AC Milan.

Fabregas will be out of contract at the end of the year, and he is rumoured to be looking for more playing time.
