'I needed to coach': new France U-21s coach Thierry Henry

Former French international footballer Thierry Henry holds his first press conference as coach of the Under-21s side, saying that he was not fulfilled in his TV punditry roles and that he "needed to coach".

The 46-year-old former Arsenal striker replaces Sylvain Ripoll and returns to management after leaving his role as Belgium assistant following last year's World Cup.

He will be in charge of the team competing at next year's Olympics in Paris.
