Resignment from his post as hopes coach on August 19, after winning the silver medal from the Olympic Games football tournament with the French team, Thierry Henry, 47, did not give up his career as coach. The 98 world champion found England alongside his children to resume his role as a star consultant during the Champions League evenings on CBS, a competition in the United States. He was recently in the short-list of the Belgian Federation before the appointment of Rudi Garcia at the head of the Red Devils.

Failing to direct a European selection which will soon start the qualifiers for the 2026 World Cup in North America, the 98 world champion, which has already resulted in Ligue 1 and MLS (respectively with AS Monaco and the impact From Montreal), may perhaps know his very first experience in the Premier League, him the legend of Arsenal. Last summer, he had no chance of finding a bench in the British elite in the wake of the Olympic Games, a week before the start of the championship. It will be another story in a few months.

Thierry Henry for an amazing return?

And what about Ligue 1? Six years after his first failed experience as a young coach at AS Monaco, Henry is precisely claimed at the Red and White bedside, while Adi Hütter's training was eliminated last week from the Champions League by Benfica (0-1, 3-3) Before losing against LOSC (2-1), Saturday in Ligue 1, abandoning 4th place in the classification to the DOGUES. The journalist who passed by RMC Benjamin Ramaget believes that “Monaco must restore his luck to Thierry Henry” For several reasons: “1, he has had experience and the context is completely different; 2, his speech goes to young people; 3, he will not hesitate to complain about arbitration; 4, it is a legend of the club; 5, it is free ”.

At ASM, Thierry Henry had failed to impose his offensive game ideas, he who was marked by his two years under the orders of Pep Guardiola. Above all, its workforce was particularly wobbly. During his last Champions League match, in December 2018 against Dortmund (BVB 2-0 victory at Louis-II), he composed with Diego Benaglio, Kamil Glik, Andra Raggi and Radamel Falcao but also Giulian Biancone, Han- Noah Massengo or Benjamin Henrichs. Cesc Fabregas, Aleksandr Golovin and Rony Lopes were lined up in his last in Ligue 1, a 5-1 defeat at home in January 2019, before his eviction.
