Arsenal legend, Thierry Henry has revealed his interest in succeeding Arsene Wenger at the Emirates Stadium when he retires from the manager's position at the club.
Wenger, who lost scandalously to Monaco in the champions league round of 16 first leg on Wednesday has been subjected to a lot of criticism in recent seasons, putting French manager's future into the spotlight.
"The thing that I will say is, I don't know what Arsene wants to do and how long he will stay, I just want to be equipped to be in the position one day maybe to be a manager," Henry, who is currently coaching youngsters at Arsenal, told The Jonathan Ross Show.
"Being the manager of Arsenal Football Club will be a dream, but let's all be honest, I need to learn first, that's the most important thing.
"It's not because you know the game that you can teach it and I just want to learn."
Asked what his response would be if offered the job by Wenger, Henry - who is working towards his coaching badges - replied: "I can't say no to Arsenal, so I would say yes."
