After many freelances on the British airwaves, in particular at the microphone of
Sky Sports
, Thierry Henry will officiate on French television since he was recruited by the new channel Amazon Prime Video Sport, which will broadcast Ligue 1 this season.
The record holder of goals for the France team (51 goals) joins a team of consultants provided, where we find several defectors from the ephemeral Téléfoot channel: Mathieu Bodmer, Benoît Cheyrou, Benjamin Nivet.
"I am honored to announce our team of consultants for the Ligue 1 season with the one and only ... Thierry Henry," said Amazon sports boss Alex Green on Twitter.
Around the star presenter of the channel Thibault Le Rol, Amazon Prime Video Sport will broadcast its first Ligue 1 match this Friday, with the Monaco-Nantes match (9 p.m.).
Before moving on with the Lyon-Brest match on Saturday (5 p.m.) then the Sunday matches, which will be shown in prime time, brought forward to 8.45 p.m. at the request of the broadcaster, and the first of which will pit Montpellier and Marseille.
