Pre-Chelsea career
Henry joined Chelsea as an Under-9.
Chelsea career
Henry made his Under-18 debut in April 2018 against Tottenham Hotspur. Initially a central midfielder, he was swiftly deployed in a range of positions, from right-back to left-back, from centre-back to winger, and back into central midfield as his versatility and individual development proved to be a tremendous asset. He was the club's Scholar of the Year in 2019 and a key player for the unbeaten Development Squad in 2019-20. Similar quality followed the season after, leading into his first senior loan spell at Wimbledon under future Chelsea Development Squad coach Mark Robinson. That move was followed by a full season at the same League One level in 2022-23 with Milton Keynes, where he was solid and dependable in a season that saw the promotion favourites instead relegated and, at the end of his Chelsea contract, he departed in June 2023.
International
Henry has represented England at Under-19 level, scoring on his debut against Belgium in October 2019.
