It is a funny season that the RB Leipzig saw. The German club thought it had done the hardest by limiting the breakage on the summer transfer window, certainly losing Dani Olmo but keeping Xavi Simons, Benjamin Sesko and Laws Openda. But nothing has happened as planned, between a catastrophic Champions League campaign that earned the head of coach Marco Rose and a season of Bundesliga far from the dreamy goals, namely to tickle Bayern Munich.
From then on, the management of Red Bull actively works on the name of the new coach. Oliver Glasner (Crystal Palace) and Cesc Fabregas (Côme) are announced in the short-list, but they are accompanied by a man currently free from any contract. This is Thierry Henry. As announces the Sunday newspaperthe former Monaco coach started discussions with the German club to take the job after the current season!
Klopp validates the Henry track
Thierry Henry would thus find a competitive and above all ambitious club, he who has not trained since his adventure with the French Hopes team, completed by a silver medal at the Paris Olympics. It would stick to the profile sought by the leaders of Red Bull, who want a trainer with the offensive game and who gives young talents a chance.
In addition, Henry kept an excellent contact with the boss of the Austrian group Oliver Mintzlaff, after having evolved for 4 seasons with the New York Red Bull at his end of a player career. Last positive point, Jürgen Klopp, who became the football manager of the Austrian firm, would have validated the Henry track. A meeting is thus planned between the two parties to evoke the contours of a future possible collaboration. It remains to be seen whether the RB Leipzig will then qualify in the Champions League. Currently 4th in Bundesliga, he is under pressure from his many pursuers in the ranking.
