The Frenchman has already taken some sessions at the club's Hale End centre for their youths and needs more hands-on experiences to get his UEFA qualifications.

Gunners boss Arsene Wenger has already tipped Henry for a future in coaching - as long as he can adjust to the pressures and criticism involved.

It is early stages and clearly Henry is a long way off senior management but he obviously wants to move into coaching at some stage.
