According to Tasnim news agency, Thierry Henry bought a small part of Como’s team in the third division of Italian football. The Arsenal legend, whose main job is to act as an assistant to the head coach of the Belgian national team, Roberto Martinez, and who is also a football expert, has bought shares in Calcio, which his former teammate Cesc Fabregas joined this summer.
Henry, who is no stranger to Italian football due to his short stay at Juventus, said about his decision to buy Como’s shares: “I know how much Italians love football, and that’s why as soon as I got the opportunity to buy shares in this club, I I marked a new chapter in my life. To make this decision, I talked with Fabregas and John Luca Zambrotta, who I was a teammate of in Barcelona. Cesk will be one of our bold pieces in this team, whether he is in the main lineup or not.
The former star of the Arsenal and Barcelona teams revealed at the end that if it wasn’t for one person, his playing career in Serie A would not have ended so soon, and it was possible that instead of Arsenal and Barcelona, Juventus fans would consider him their legend.
Henry, who joined Juventus after France won the 1998 World Cup and lasted just six months, said: “When I joined Juventus, I had a back injury but I wanted to play straight away.” If it wasn’t for one particular person, I might still be at Juventus.
A few years ago, Henry considered former Juventus president Luciano Moggi as the reason for his separation from the old lady and accused him of disrespect.
