Thierry Henry has always been very emotional about his old club, Arsenal and has revealed he's likely to take up a role at the club

Thierry Henry has publicised his exit from New York Red Bulls after four-and-a-half years with the Major League Soccer club.

The former France striker revealed his decision three days after admitting he would be interested in a return to Arsenal, and changed his Facebook photograph to an image of the Emirates Stadium.

The 37-year-old will take 'the next few weeks to reflect and decide on the next chapter of my career' with a coaching role at the Barclays Premier League club among the options.

'I am taking this opportunity to announce that unfortunately Saturday was my last game for the New York Red Bulls,' Henry said.

'The decision has always been that I would leave after the duration of my contract and although that was never going to change, I didn't want it to distract from the progress of the team.

'You guys have really meant a lot to me and thank you for all your wonderful support. 

'I will now take the next few weeks to reflect and decide on the next chapter of my career. Thank you all.'

Henry told L'Equipe on Friday that he will remain in football following his retirement as a player, telling the French newspaper he will become 'a coach, a consultant or executive'.

The 1998 World Cup winner admitted he regrets not helping Arsenal win the Champions League, and that he would like to play a part in their potential European success at the Emirates.

'Whether that is from near or far does not depend on me but it is sure I'd like to help,' Henry continued. 

'This is my club and, as a player, I was not able to give them the Champions League.'
