MONTREAL — Head coach Thierry Henry is leaving CF Montreal.

The MLS team said the 43-year-old Henry is leaving for family reasons.

The former French international had been linked to England’s Bournemouth in recent days. The Championship side recently handed the manager’s job to Jonathan Woodgate through the end of the season.

Henry took over as Montreal coach in November 2019. He led the team to the playoffs last season for the first time since 2016.

Henry said he is returning to London so he can see his children, adding he leaves Montreal with a “heavy heart.”
