Thierry Henry: 'I want to return to Arsenal as manager one day'

Arsenal legend Thierry Henry reveals that he intends to complete his coaching badges before turning his focus to management.

Thierry Henry has insisted that he has no hard feelings against Arsenal following his decision to leave, and says that he would one day like to manage his former side.

The Frenchman departed the Gunners earlier this summer after refusing to give up his lucrative punditry role, which is said to have clashed with his youth coaching commitments at the Emirates Stadium.

Henry, who remains Arsenal's all-time top goalscorer, is now hoping to push on with his coaching badges before one day switching to management and potentially replacing Arsene Wenger in North London.

"I would be lying if I said it wasn't a wish that I have because I love Arsenal," he told The Sun. "The game is my passion and always will be. I would like to manage but I am far from it. Although I am able to manage any team now I would still like to pass my Pro License that I'm working on to give me a better all-round knowledge.

"I am in the process of doing that. That is what I'm trying to get and to complete the necessary coaching hours that are needed. Before you can think of becoming a first-team coach you need to have experience. There is a massive difference between a wish and doing it.

"I felt I could add something to the kids and I could also gain valuable experience myself. If it's not to be there, then so be it. I have to respect the situation and that is the way it is. I will continue to support the team and wish them all the best for this season."

Henry made 369 appearances under Wenger at Arsenal, scoring 228 times in total before departing for a spell at Barcelona in 2007.
