Thierry Henry Honored With Street Name in New York City Ahead of 2026 World Cup
Jun 11, 2026, by Phan Tich Giay
French football legend Thierry Henry has been honored with a street named after him in New York City. Located in the heart of Manhattan at the intersection of 50th Street and 6th Avenue near Rockefeller Center, the street has been temporarily co-named "Thierry Henry Way." The tribute was officially celebrated by his former Major League Soccer club, the New York Red Bulls, who shared images of the newly installed street sign on June 10, 2026.
The dedication is part of a legislative package passed by the New York City Council to prepare for the 2026 FIFA World Cup and celebrate the tournament's arrival in the region. The initiative honors Henry's impact on the growth of soccer in the United States during his successful spell with the Red Bulls. As part of the same World Cup-inspired project, a "Pelé Way" has also been established in Queens to recognize the late Brazilian icon. Both street co-namings will remain in place until November 2026.
Henry, an Arsenal all-time leading goalscorer and World Cup winner, responded to the announcement on Instagram, calling the recognition an honor and referring to New York as his favorite city. The temporary landmark serves as a fitting tribute to his legacy in the MLS and builds anticipation for the upcoming global tournament across North America.

No Adidas Logo: Charly Mexico U23 Kits Released
Mexico's U23 squad has received brand-new Charly kits ahead of their campaign at the 2026 Central American and Caribbean Games (Juegos Centroamericanos y del Caribe).
Fans expecting to see the customary Adidas three stripes on El Tri's youth delegation might be caught off guard, but there is a distinct structural reason behind the supplier swap for this tournament.
While the main national team and the Mexican Football Federation (FMF) are sponsored by Adidas, multi-sport events within the Olympic cycle fall directly under the governance of the Comité Olímpico Mexicano (COM). Domestic sportswear brand Charly holds the official apparel rights for all athletes representing the Mexican Olympic Committee through the 2028 Los Angeles Games, resulting in the U23 football squad dressing in Charly uniforms for these games.
The new Mexico U23 2026 home jersey features a deep green base highlighted by subtle tonal vertical stripes running down the front. The design is finished with a traditional polo collar and sleeve cuffs trimmed in red and dark green accents. Instead of the FMF crest, the chest displays the official Mexican Olympic Committee logo alongside Charly's emblem, paired with green shorts and white socks.
