Former Monaco manager Thierry Henry has step down as Montreal head coach due to family reasons as the French man returns to London.
Henry took charge of the MLS side in November 2019 and led the club to play-offs for the first time in three years.
In a statement Thierry Henry stated that: “It is with a heavy heart that I’ve decided to take this decision. The last year has been an extremely difficult one for me personally.
“Due to the worldwide pandemic, I was unable to see my children. Unfortunately due to the ongoing restrictions and the fact that we will have to relocate to the US again for several months will be no different. The separation is too much of a strain for me and my kids.
“Therefore, it is with much sadness that I must take the decision to return to London and leave CF Montreal. I would like to thank the fans, players and all the staff of this club that have made me feel so welcome.”
