Forget all the talk about Sam Allardyce taking charge of the England team this week, the first international break of the season also sees Thierry Henry start his new job.
The former Arsenal star recently accepted an offer to join the coaching staff of newly-appointed Roberto Martinez’s Belgium team.
As the Red Devils prepare for their games against Spain and Cyprus later in the week, it seems Chelsea’s Michy Batshuayi is already enjoying working under the former French international.
Batshuayi, who moved to London from Marseille following Belgium’s disappointing defeat to Wales in the Euro 2016 quarter finals, tweeted the following image of himself in conversation with Henry during a training session.
‘Not sure I ever listened to my parents like this,’ the tweet reads.
