THIERRY HENRY has gone viral alongside France stars Castello Lukeba and Manu Kone - and not for their display on the pitch.

Instead, they broke the internet with their DANCE OFF at a Paris nightclub after the host nation bagged an Olympic silver medal in football.

Henry was dancing away the pain it seems, as France narrowly missed out on Olympic gold after losing 5-3 to Spain in extra-time.

After getting their medals around their necks, Henry and his squad stunned crowds by busting some moves in a night out on the town.

Defender Lukeba kicked things off by enticing his manager to emulate his impressive quick-footed steps to French dance tunes.

Before midfielder Kone joined the pair in front of a huge filming crowd as they grooved to "1er Gaou", by Ivorian Zouglou artists Magic System.

The hilarious trio were then joined by a number of other French stars, who are all dressed in white tracksuits.

That sent Paris 2024 fans into a frenzy as they stormed social media.

One fan wrote: "What a treat for the Henry. We've never seen him let loose like that and it's awesome!"

A second said: "Sports is still the greatest showcase of human beings being happy for each other...brings so much joy."

A third added: "Bravo to him and his team composed in the tournament and mainly of a group of kids."

While another replied: "Incredible. Henry is an absolute legend😂."

A fifth said: "Love the vibes. The whole team embracing the Olympics."

Henry also showed off his dance moves at Parker's Hall of Fame pool party last year in San Antonio, Texas.

He was reportedly there interviewing for the USA national job, which later went to Gregg Berhalter who was let go last month.

This year, Henry - who currently manages France's U21 side - has been linked with the Wales job after Rob Page was let go in June.
