Arsene Wenger hints at Thierry Henry return

Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger reveals that he would jump at the chance to welcome club legend Thierry Henry on to his coaching staff.

Arsene Wenger has revealed that he would welcome Arsenal legend Thierry Henry back to the club in a coaching capacity.

At 37, the legendary Gunners hitman is nearing the end of his illustrious playing career, and Wenger says that he would love to work alongside the Frenchman after he retires.

Asked by reporters if Henry could swap the pitch for the dugout in North London, Wenger said: "It's not impossible. I welcome people who have played for us to come back but not [for just] an honorary job.

"It has to be a job that is available and one where you get up in the morning and do something."

Henry scored 226 goals in a highly successful seven-year spell that spawned two Premier League titles - including an unbeaten season in 2004 - and three FA Cups.

The former France international is currently plying his trade in the United States with MLS outfit New York Red Bulls.
