Arsenal legend Thierry Henry to receive BBC lifetime achievement award



 Arsenal legend Thierry Henry is set to receive a Lifetime Achievement award at the BBC Sports Personality of the Year show. The BBC have confirmed that Thierry Henry will be honoured with the Lifetime Achievement award at the BBC Sports Personality of the Year show on Thursday night, December 18. Football has given me everything, and I gave it my all, Henry said in response to the recognition. To be recognised as part of its history with this Lifetime Achievement award and to have made my mark for the fans and my team-mates is something Ill never take for granted. Sir Mark Cavendish won the same award in 2024, and other winners include Billie Jean King, Pele, Sir Bobby Charlton, Baroness Tanni Grey-Thompson, Sir David Beckham, Dame Jessica Ennis-Hill and Sir Chris Hoy. Henry is a worthy winner, having won 18 trophies in senior football whilst scoring hundreds of goals along the way. The striker is of course, best known for his spell with Arsenal, winning multiple Premier League titles, FA Cup trophies, and Community Shields, becoming the clubs record goalscorer.The post Arsenal legend Thierry Henry to receive BBC lifetime achievement award appeared first on Linda Ikeji Blog.
