L'Equipe: Jardim set to replace 'suspended' Thierry Henry at Monaco
The Portuguese coach will return to the dugout following Henry's recent suspension from the club
According to L’Équipe, the current 'suspension' Thierry Henry is under at Monaco will become permanent and the club has already lined up his replacement: Leonardo Jardim - again.
On Thursday night the French club confirmed that Henry had been suspended from his role after just three months in charge. Monaco are 19th in Ligue 1 and three points away from safety.
It appears that an agreement was reached in a meeting on Thursday between Monaco's vice president, Vadim Vasilyev, Nicolas Holveck (general director), Leonardo Jardim and his agent Jorge Mendes.
Jardim and Vasilyev signed off a two and a half year deal for the coach to return to the club.
The objective for this season is clearly to avoid relegation. Three points isn't a huge gap to make up with half a season to go but confidence is clearly low and Henry was unable to turn it around.
Henry only added 9 points from his 12 matches in charge. The results weren't better than Jardim, who was sacked in October, and is now back to fix his own mistakes.
