“After a first contact just before Easter weekend, the two games have planned to meet in the coming days”. The info of Sunday newspaperlast Friday, on the interest of the RB Leipzig for Thierry Henry was relayed throughout the press in Europe.
The RBL, 5th from Bundesliga with Zsolt Löw as an interim, is looking for a new coach with offensive ideas that can deal with young talents in the workforce (including Castello Lukeba, Xavi Simons and Loïs Openda). The former coach of the French Hopes team, who resigned after the silver medal obtained at the Paris 2025 Olympic Games last August, has the appropriate profile.
In Germany, however, the arrival of “Titi” Henry is already dismissed. According to a journalist from the Sky Sport channel as well as Bild, the 98 world champion is not one of the plans of the German club held by the Red Bull group. The star consultant of CBS (TV channel which broadcasts the Champions League in the United States) is highly appreciated by the leaders of Red Bull, but rather for a role in the group's organization chart in the future.
Thierry Henry at Red Bull?
Thierry Henry could not logically resume a club last August when he left his post at the FFF. Returning to London, where he lives with his family, the legendary striker of Arsenal could rather be interested in a project in the Premier League, he who has so far known Ligue 1 and the MLS with AS Monaco and the impact of Montreal respectively. His future will be obviously not in the Bundesliga, even if, across the Rhine, he could learn a lot in this spectacular championship, where some strategists manage to offer offensive football.
In the Red Bull group, what could be the role of Thierry Henry? Jürgen Klopp became Head of Global Soccer from Red Bull on January 1, in order to supervise the Red Bull Galaxy clubs. He thus accompanies the Arnault family in the implementation of the Paris FC sports strategy (Red Bull acquired 11 % of the shares of the Parisian club). Can Thierry Henry become a sports advisor to the Red Bull group in charge of this PFC soon in Ligue 1? Impossible to say it.
