Ligue 1 side AS Monaco have officially appointed Thierry Henry as their new head coach.
The Arsenal & France legend Thierry Henry accepts to become new head coach of Monaco. Before that, Monaco have sacked manager Leonardo Jardim with the club third from bottom of Ligue 1.
Henry is a French professional football coach and former player. He is the second assistant coach of the Belgium national team.
During his playing career, Henry played for Monaco, Juventus, Barcelona, New York Red Bulls and spent 8 years at Arsenal where he is the club's record goalscorer. At international level, he represented France and is his country's record goalscorer.
Henry will take his first steps into management at the club where he began his professional career, and has signed a three-year contract.
The Frenchman obviously went on to greater heights, joining Juventus, then the Gunners and then Barcelona, but he spent six years with the Principality club and is delighted to be making a return.

Don't know when it happened, but really hate this snobbish attitude that has suddenly overcome this country in recent years claiming that you need to be experienced in a certain profession to get a job in that profession. How are you supposed to get the experience if people don't give you the chance in the 1st place. And as for the argument great footballer don't make great managers well tell that too Guardiola, Ancelotti, Paisley, Busby, Munoz, Dagleish, Zidane, Cruyff, Conte, Trapatonni, Stein, Capello, Del Bosque and many more. Most of whom got a big a job straight after they retired from playing and succeeded straight away when the inexperienced got a chance. Yes many of the greatest managers were not great players and some great players did not become top managers but that does not mean you dismiss every great player from getting a shot when so many have succeeded.

As a Spurs fan wish Henry all the best. He was a fantastic player back in the day and hope he can go on to be a top manager. Kind it find of sad that some are hoping he fails just because he player for a rival club. See ne reason why he can't do a fantastic job for Monaco and be a brilliant manager.
