Bordeaux 'want Arsenal legend Thierry Henry as their next manager with Vladimir Petkovic facing the sack if he fails to win their next game' and get the club out of the relegation zone

Thierry Henry is reportedly being handed a route back into management after Bordeaux approached him about becoming their next manager.

The French club are in freefall and are at risk of being relegated after four straight defeats, which included a 6-0 hammering at the hands of Rennes last time out, leaving Vladimir Petkovic on the brink of being sacked.

According to French news outlet RMC Sport, Henry has been in 'regular contact' with the Ligue 1 side, with the club's president Gerard Lopez making the Arsenal legend his No 1 managerial target if Petkovic is shown the door.
