The basketball star believes his close friend will turn down Willy Sagnol's offer to coach in Ligue 1 and will instead return to north London or begin a career in television
San Antonio Spurs star Tony Parker believes Thierry Henry will choose Arsenal over Bordeaux should he look to begin a coaching career.The former France international has left New York Red Bulls following their MLS Cup exit to New England, but has not yet decided whether he will continue his playing career or retire.
Reports have suggested the 37-year-old will look to embark on a coaching career, with Bordeaux coach Willy Sagnol saying he would be happy to bring his ex-international team-mate onto his staff.
Arsene Wenger has also revealed that he would not be adverse to bringing his former striker back to the Emirates Stadium should he wish, and basketball star Parker, who is close friends with Henry, believes the a move back to north London would be his preferred option.
"I am having dinner with him tomorrow, so I will know more then. I don’t think he will go to Bordeaux," he told RMC.
"I think he will either go to Arsenal or into television. He did the World Cup as a pundit, he liked it a lot, he told me it was a nice experience.
"I know that he also has these little cravings to be a coach."
