Thierry Henri Retires At 37

      

The 37-year-old Thierry Henri has announced his retirement from football. The former Gunners striker, confirmed it this morning, stating that he will return to London to take up a role in the media with Sky Sports "as a football expert and ambassador" from the start of 2015.

Arsenal paid a fitting tribute to Thierry Henry, as did a number of his soon-to-be new colleagues.
Henry will always be most closely associated with Arsenal, where he is the all-time highest goalscorer with 228 goals in 377 games across two different spells. His time at the club included winning the Premier League title twice with the Gunners, as well as the FA Cup three times.

Henry spent the final five years of his playing career with the New York Red Bulls, returning to Arsenal to make four appearances on loan in early 2012. Henry left the Red Bulls at the start of the month after they were knocked out of the MLS play-offs.
