He is, Thierry Daniel Henry. is a former French footballer from the Lesser Antilles (Guadeloupe and Martinique). He is currently assistant to the coach Roberto Martínez Montoliú in the Belgium National Team. He is the top scorer of the French national football team of all time, with 51 goals and will have his heart divided in the semifinals of the World Cup that takes place this Tuesday July 10 between Belgium and his country France.
Thierry Henry is one of the heroes of France for the only world title acquired by Le Bleu in 1998. On the other side will be Deschamps, his captain in the French team who won the World Cup at home in 1998 and who has been the coach of Les Bleus in the last six years.
"It's strange, bizarre, because he is French and will be in the rival bank," Deschamps said on Sunday at the French sports program Telefoot. "But it's someone I really appreciate, I'm happy for him."
"He will want us to reach the top," added Kevin De Bruyne after Belgium defeated Brazil on Friday to reserve his place in the semifinals. "He always tries to help us win games."
For the French team, Henry will be happy beyond Tuesday's result.
