Va va voom! Thierry Henry makes surprise appearance in Merthyr

Former Arsenal star Thierry Henry made a shock cameo appearance in a Merthyr Tydfil school today.

The Frenchman appeared in a disguise, donning a pair of geek glasses and a wig, as he dressed as a teacher and surprised Welsh teenager Emma Morgan, at Pen-Y-Dre High School.

The student won the Sky Sports Living for Sport Student of the Year award after rediscovering her passion for swimming and went on to win a silver medal at the European ‘Superschools’ competition in Sweden.

She was awash with happiness as Thierry unveiled his disguise, presented her with her medal and gave her a bear hug – va va voom!
