World Cup 2026: Thierry Henry picks two countries as dark horses

Arsenal legend, Thierry Henry, has picked two countries as his dark horses in the 2026 World Cup tournament.

Speaking on Fox Sports, Henry singled out Senegal and Norway as his dark horses.

Senegal and Norway are in Group I, alongside France and Iraq.

“You have to think about Senegal and Norway, who are my two dark horses in this competition,” Henry said.

“It’s going to be tough for Iraq. I do think that the three teams [Norway, Senegal and France] will go forward, so I’m looking forward to that one, and there is another one.”

Henry won the World Cup with France in 1998 during his playing days as a professional footballer.
