Thierry Henry commands a weekly salary of approximately £95,000, despite having retired from playing in 2014. Over decade has passed since the Arsenal legend hung up his boots and left the pitch behind. He is regarded amongst the greatest players of all time and arguably the finest to have performed in the Premier League.

A deadly striker, Henry became Arsenal's all-time leading scorer with 228 goals across all competitions, securing an unparalleled four Golden Boots in England's top flight along with two league titles and three FA Cups. He also represented Monaco, Juventus and Barcelona, clinching a historic treble with the Catalan side in 2009, before finishing his playing career in the United States with New York Red Bulls. On the international stage, he won the 1998 World Cup, Euro 2000 and the 2003 Confederations Cup with France, and stands as his country's third-highest scorer with 51 goals from 123 appearances.

While over 11 years have passed since his final professional outing, the Frenchman remains heavily involved with football, having moved into coaching shortly after retiring from playing.

His managerial career has included spells at former club Monaco as well as MLS side Montreal Impact, while he also held roles with Arsenal's youth system and Belgium.

His most recent role saw him manage France under-21s and the nation's Olympic team, although he left the post after the Paris Games in 2024.

Today, Henry is a well-known figure in broadcasting, frequently offering his insight to the likes of CBS, Amazon Prime, Fox and Sky Sports.

Despite retiring from professional football, he remains amongst the sport's most recognisable and commercially desirable figures.

Having famously featured in Renault's celebrated 'Va-Va-Voom' advertising campaign during his playing days, Henry continues to maintain a substantial portfolio of endorsement agreements with leading brands including Kia, Reebok, Don Julio, Ninja and Lays.
