Inducted into his role as coach of the France Espoir team, Thierry Henry spoke on Tuesday about the rumors he was the subject of.
Thierry Henry is back in service. After consulting experience for the Amazon Prime Video channel, the 1998 world champion was appointed coach of the France Espoir team to succeed Sylvain Ripoll. With a flashy goal on the horizon: the 2024 Olympic Games in Paris.
Paris, precisely, has been linked to the name of Thierry Henry in recent months. Long before the former striker accepted the mission entrusted by the FFF, his name had been associated with PSG. Several media indicated, at the beginning of June, that Thierry Henry could integrate the technical staff of Julian Nagelsmann in the event of the arrival of the German technician on the bench of the club of the capital. Water has flowed under the bridge since then and it was Luis Enrique who was chosen by QSI.
“I can’t confirm”
If this was not the subject of the day, Thierry Henry was however revived on these rumors on the occasion of his induction into his new position as coach of the Blueberries. And his version was very clear. “Can I confirm (discussions with Paris, editor’s note)? No, I can’t confirm that, sorry. I did it, moreover, once. So I do it twice”, he blurted out. The message got through.
