Thierry Henry’s future as the next Bordeaux coach has been plunged into doubt.
For much of last week, it seemed that Henry was destined to take charge of the Ligue 1 side, but negotiations have become complicated for the Arsenal legend.
The post became free a fortnight ago, following Gus Poyet’s outburst at the board, and while he is yet to have been formally dismissed, Henry had been hotly tipped to take over his position at the helm of the Europa League hopefuls.
While some sources are reporting that the Belgium assistant coach has turned down the club, Goal understands that he is yet to break off talks entirely.
