When Henry was managing Major League Soccer team Montreal during the Covid-19 outbreak, he was also going through a tough period since he was “crying almost every day.”

“I was in isolation in Montreal, and not being able to see my kids for a year was tough,” he stated.

“Tears were coming alone. Why I don’t know, but maybe they were there for a very long time.”

In addition to managing Arsenal’s young teams, the World Cup champion served as Belgium’s assistant coach and head coach of Monaco and Montreal Impact. He is the France Under-21 team’s head coach at the moment.
