AS Monaco coach Thierry Henry fancies going to Chelsea to make his first signing.

Henry, reports Foot Mercato, is keen to tempt Chelsea defender Andreas Christensen to France in January.

Both Christensen and his father have stated in the last week he could be on the move over the winter market after falling off the first team map at Chelsea.

Further strengthening the prospect is the presence of former Chelsea football chief Michael Emenalo at Monaco.

Indeed, it was Emenalo who initially signed Christensen for Chelsea.
