"I never considered leaving Arsenal." Henry told beIN Sports.
"I was 29 years old and in form, I thought all the guys left and I did not know if Arsene [Wenger] would be staying.
"It was not easy and when I left I cried, I'm not ashamed to say it. I'm a competitor and I had to leave."
The Arsenal Legend joined Barcelona in 2007 for a fee of 21 million pounds and revealed that at the time of his time of arrival, Pep Guardiola told him he would be the fourth choice striker.
"When I arrived at Barcelona, Guardiola told me that I was the fourth-choice striker and I would not be a starter," he added.
"I accepted the challenge and I fought, and competition makes you increase your level. People talk about luck, but you need to create your own. When you work, you get the reward at the end."
