Premier League: Shearer, Henry inducted in Hall of Fame
Thierry Henry has decided to return to the Belgium national team ahead of Euro 2020. The Arsenal legend will no longer be a part of the BBC's coverage for the upcoming tournament.

The move will mean that Henry is unable to fulfil his duties with the BBC, having recently signed up to be one of the broadcaster's pundits for the tournament.
The Frenchman said in a BBC statement: “It is with much sadness that I can no longer be with all my friends and the wonderful team at the BBC during the European Championships this summer.
“When I was asked to rejoin the Belgium National team staff, it was an opportunity that was impossible to turn down.
“I’m deeply thankful for the understanding that the BBC have shown in allowing me to take this opportunity.”
