Thierry Henry has quit his job as a Sky Sports analyst to pursue a career as a football manager, and his former teammate Robert Pires believes the Frenchman is ready to be at the helm of a club.
Pires, who played alongside Henry at Arsenal and on the France national team, spoke glowingly about his fellow 1998 World Cup winner, who has been an assistant coach for Belgium since 2006.
“I think Thierry is ready to be a manager, because he loves football, he’s passionate. With Belgium, it was a great experience because he worked one month for Roberto Martinez and I think he learned a lot,” Pires said.
