Arsenal’s leading goalscorer and ex player, Thierry Henry has begun a  coaching role at Arsenal’s youth team, Arsene Wenger confirms.

The France international who hung his boots at the end of the last MLS season in December 2014 also works as pundit for Sky Sports.

“Thierry Henry is making his first steps as a coach. It’s good for our youngsters to be coached by him. He’s been here once or twice. All our former players are welcome to come back here and get their coaching badges. We’re happy to have him.”
