He played with Messi in Barcelona and wants to steal Koeman's place to be a coach

Thierry Henry was a fundamental piece in the most winning Barcelona in the history of the hand of Pep Guardiola. Alongside Eto'o and Ronaldinho and a young Messi, he lifted wholesale titles and won the affection of the demanding Blaugrana fans. That is why the Frenchman constantly talks about the current situation of the team and now, he even raised his hand to be a DT in the future.

"I'm on my learning curve and then time will tell. If I would like to coach Barcelona one day? Yes", he revealed in a talk for the Four Four Two Podcast. Although the results of his adventures on the bench, both in MLS with the Montreal Impact and with Monaco, have not been good, Henry is patient and knows that his career as a strategist is just beginning. "If I don't succeed, I won't have those kinds of opportunities. I'm just concentrating on what I can control, and the rest is a massive utopia", confessed.

However, it would not be crazy to think of Titi Henry's return to Catalonia. The good image he left as a player will keep a bond with the institution alive forever. In addition, his name is written in the club's historical records, since he is the French player who scored the most goals with the Blaugrana jersey, with which he screamed 35 times in 80 games played.

However, the appointment of Joan Laporta to the leadership of Barcelona, seems to extinguish the immediate possibilities of the French becoming the new coach. Although everything indicates that Ronald Koeman will not continue to lead the first team, given his irregular performance in the last season, the main candidate of the new president, to succeed the Dutchman is Mikel Arteta. Anyway, this is still a long way from materializing, since the Spanish still has a current contract with the English Arsenal.
