French idol world champion, and Arsenal, Thierry Henry has a near future to be defined, as he must be confirmed as national team coach

The former player and French idol, Thierry Henry is close to being announced as the new coach of the French under-21 team. Less than a year before the Paris 2024 Olympics, the new commander will have the mission of taking another gold medal to the European country, this time at home.

Retired since 2015, Henry has since dedicated himself to being an assistant coach and commentator, in addition to being the head coach of the Montreal Impacts, about two and a half years ago. He was assistant to Roberto Martinez in Belgium at the last two World Cups, but had been commentating games on television recently.

In addition to the Olympic Games, the former player of the Arsenal will also have the task of qualifying his team for Euro 2025, as the qualifiers are also approaching. In this year’s edition, Les Bleus were eliminated in the quarterfinals of the competition to Ukraine. England took the trophy.
