Arsenal legend, Thierry Henry has just been suspended as the first team coach of AS Monaco until a final decision is made on his future just 15 weeks after he signed a 3 year deal that was supposed to last until 2021. He won just 4 of his 20 matches. The French Ligue 1 club said in a short statement on Thursday that “AS Monaco announces that it has decided to suspend Thierry Henry from his duties as coach of the first team from this day and waiting for a final decision. Franck Passi will train the professional group this Friday”.. Monaco, who appointed Thiery Henry in October, have picked up only two points in their last five Ligue 1 games and sit second from bottom in the table. They were also knocked out of the French Cup in the last 32 by Ligue 2 side Metz on Tuesday. This followed a 5-1 demolition at home by Racing Strasbourg in their last league outing with the club showing no signs of improvement since signing midfielder Cesc Fabregas from Chelsea earlier this month. Henry, whostarted out playing for Monaco and went on to enjoy a stellar club career with Arsenal and Barcelona, worked as assistant coach for Belgium for two years until 2018 but had never been in charge of a team in his own right. Henry, 41, played for Monaco for five seasons, winning a league title with them in 1997.The post Monaco suspends first-team coach, Thierry Henry until further notice just 15 weeks into his managerial job appeared first on Linda Ikeji Blog.
