French soccer star Thierry Henry
has just announced his retirement from professional football after 20 years
through his Facebook page. He played for top clubs like Barcelona, Arsenal
& France. He said will be returning to London to join Sky Sports as a
football expert and ambassador.
“After 20 years in the game I
have decided to retire from professional football. It has been an incredible
journey and I would like to thank all the fans, team mates and individuals
involved with AS Monaco, Juventus, Arsenal FC, FC Barcelona, the New York Red
Bulls and of course the French national team that have made my time in the game
so special. It is now time for a different career path and I am pleased to say
that I will be returning to London and joining Sky Sports. I will hopefully
share some of the insights, observations and experiences I have learnt over the
years with you guys. I have had some amazing memories (mostly good!) and a
wonderful experience. I hope you have enjoyed watching as much as I have
enjoyed taking part.”
Kudos to him. He has won FIFA
World Cup, UEFA World Cup, FIFA Confederation’s Cup, UEFA Champions League, EPL,
FA Cup, Carling Cup, Copa del rey, Spanish La Liga, PFA Player twice, Player of
the Year, Arsenal’s best player, Arsenal’s top goal scorer, French highest goal
scorer which beat Platini’s record and he won player of the month so many times
for the clubs he played for.
What a great run for Thiery Henry.
