Sport;Thierry Henry quits the French national team to sign with newyork redbull

French striker Thierry Henry on Thursday confirmed that he has retired from international football after making 123 appearances and scoring a record 51 goals for France.

Thierry Henry announced his retirement from international football during his unveiling as a New York Red Bulls player in the United States.

Appearing at a press conference at the Red Bull Arena here following the officialisation of his move to Major League Soccer side the New York Red Bulls, the 32-year-old explained the reasons behind his decision.

I've worn (the French shirt) 123 times and I've always had goosebumps when I've worn the blue jersey," he said.
"But you have to know when to stop. There are young players coming through."
