Arsenal considering appointment of Henry as a coach

Arsenal shareholder Usmanov said that the board is seriously considering an option of offering the legendary Gunners forward Thierry Henry a coaching role at the club.

Billionaire revealed that 35 year-old Henry’s mere presence on the pitch gives Arsenal players a boost of confidence. “Thierry should be involved at the club but not as a player. He has another role to play, a more important role,” Usmanov said. ““The presence of a champion can radically change the soul of a team […]”

Henry is set to return at the Emirates in winter on a short-term loan deal from his current club New York Red Bulls.
