Barcelona consider Thierry Henry as future boss?

Thierry Henry has allegedly emerged as a potential managerial target for Barcelona.

Despite the Catalan giants sitting at the top of the La Liga table, Ernesto Valverde finds himself under pressure to keep his job at Camp Nou on a long-term basis.

While there does not appear to be any prospect of an imminent change, it has seemingly not stopped the club's hierarchy from considering possible replacements.

According to Sport, Henry remains highly thought of behind the scenes after his spell at Barcelona during the latter stages of his playing career.

While Henry endured a disastrous spell at Monaco last year, the Frenchman has since been appointed as boss of Montreal Impact, while he can also call upon working as assistant to Roberto Martinez with Belgium.

The report suggests that Barcelona officials want their next manager to have a better appreciation of the club's values and attacking football.
