Thomas Henry apologized to the children in attendance

Thomas Henry apologized

Thomas Henry, Hellas forward, returned to Sunday’s verbal confrontation in the aftermath of the match with Spezia.

“I have always respected the fans and I did so on Sunday at the end of Verona-Spezia, when I stopped for some photos and autographs at the request of some children present at the stadium,” he wrote on his own social media. Sports criticism is justified, I am ready to listen to it and take responsibility, but I did not and will not accept the search for physical confrontation and insults to my family who was present with me at that moment and whom I wanted to defend with my words. This is unfortunately not sport. I feel sorry for the children present, to whom I immediately apologized. I will give and give everything to get Verona out of this difficult situation. Forza Hellas!”
