Thierry Henry is in line to make his Arsenal return in the FA Cup against Swansea City.
The Daly Mail says Henry is set to make his third Arsenal debut in the FA Cup clash against Swansea on January 6.
The Gunners are in advanced talks with New York Red Bulls over a loan spell that will start five days earlier.
And manager Arsene Wenger hopes Henry can feature in his side's FA Cup third round tie.
A deal has been agreed in principle but the two clubs remain in discussions over the length of the loan deal.
