New York Knicks star Carmelo Anthony paid a visit to north London on Saturday and was at the Emirates Stadium to see Arsenal’s 2-0 defeat of Stoke City.
Thierry Henry was a big fan of the Knicks during his time in New York, meeting Anthony on a number of occasions and maybe the Arsenal legend left an impression on the American.

Earlier this year Anthony purchased his very own ‘soccer’ team, Puerto Rico FC, who will start playing in the North American Soccer League in 2016. Clearly he’s a fan of the sport and hopefully Arsenal put on a show for him at the weekend.
