Thierry Henry has admitted that he may not go into football management once he calls time on his playing career.

The former Arsenal striker had previously gone on record to say that a move into coaching would be something that he would strongly consider.

However, the 34-year-old has hinted that he would find it too challenging to coach players that possess less ability then he had during his prime.

"The more I think about it, it's pretty difficult," Henry told Goal.com. "You don't think about it but you need to be a teacher. Teaching isn't easy. Sometimes you see things yourself but how do you pass it on?

"When you know something and you're talking to someone who just doesn't get it, that must be hard."

Henry is currently playing in America with the New York Red Bulls.
