Thierry Henry net worth, family and Arsenal legend’s next job
Thierry Henry is a name rarely missed when discussing the greatest forwards to ever play football.
When the Frenchman was just 13-years-old he was recruited to Monaco where he would join Arsene Wenger. This was just the beginning of an illustrious career between the two.
In 1999, Henry made the move from Juventus to Arsenal for £11million. Two Premier League titles, including the invincible season, two FA cups and a record four Golden Boots later, Henry cemented his name in Premier League history. He also became the Gunners all-time leading goalscorer with 228 goals.
It wasn't just in England where Henry excelled. The forward won the treble with Barcelona under Pep Guardiola. He also shone on the international stage where he secured the 1998 World Cup and Euro 2000 with France. But with all this in the past, what is Henry up to now?

Celebrity Net Worth lists Henry's net worth at a staggering £102m. This is over double that of his former mentor and long-time coach Wenger who sits at £38m.
His latest football job was managing France in the 2024 Summer Olympics. Henry managed to reach the final where he eventually missed out on gold to Spain who beat them 5-3.
Where the Arsenal icon can be found now is on CBS Sports where he is an analyst covering Champions League football. Alongside pundits Jamie Carragher and Micah Richards, the trio have become a viral sensation online. Henry has just signed a new three-year deal with the American broadcaster taking him to the 2026/27 season.
Although the forward has found enjoyment in punditry, it was clear that after hanging his boots up, he was most interested in management. After an assistant manager role at Belgium as well as being boss of both Monaco and Montreal, Henry has said in the past that Arsenal is his goal.
He told FourFourTwo in 2021: "Listen, if you ask an Arsenal fan if they’d like to coach Arsenal one day, they’ll say yes. If you ask an Arsenal fan if they’d like to score a goal for Arsenal, they’ll say yes. When I speak about it, it’s a utopia. People get carried away whenever I say that it’s my club, but I have it in my blood – I’m an Arsenal fan.
“So if you’re asking me if one day I’d like to coach Arsenal, then yes. If you ask if one day I’d like to be Arsenal’s kit man, then yes. If you ask if one day I’d like to cut the grass at the Emirates Stadium, then yes.
“If you ask me am I dreaming, yes I’m dreaming. But when you’re not dreaming, you’re awake and there is a reality. Would I love to coach Arsenal? Yes. Would I love to go to Barcelona? Yes. Would I like to play for Arsenal again? I’d love to play for them again, but the reality is I can’t!”
The most recent big job that Henry was surprisingly linked to was manager of Wales. The bosses at FAW wanted to appoint a big name, similar to that of Ryan Giggs when he was hired in 2018. This never materialised.
Since 2001, Henry has lived on and off in Hampstead, London. Moves to Spain and America meant he had to spend a lot of time abroad. Whilst with the New York Red Bulls, the Frenchman lived in a £20m+ Soho penthouse.
The ex-Premier League ace is married to Bosnian model Andrea Rajacic who has a nice net worth herself - £3.9m. Henry has four children. Two with Rajacic, a daughter named Stella and son Gabirel, and also two with ex-wife Claire Merry, daughter Tea and son Titi.
