Thomas Michel David Henry (born 20 September 1994) is a French professional footballer who plays as a striker for Belgian Pro League club Standard Liège.
Henry began his career at Beauvais and Fréjus Saint-Raphaël before joining Nantes in 2015. He made his Ligue 1 debut on 12 December 2015 against Toulouse FC in a 1–1 draw replacing Alejandro Bedoya after 72 minutes.
Having made two appearances in Ligue 1 for Nantes he signed for Chambly on 15 June 2016.
Henry joined OH Leuven in January 2019 after impressing with Tubize in the Belgian second division, scoring 11 goals in the first half of the 2018–19 season. He continued his good form with OH Leuven and scored a career-high 21 goals in the 2020–21 Belgian Pro League, second-most in the league. Following his good form throughout the 2020–21 season, Henry was linked with a number of clubs in Europe's top leagues including Celtic, Bordeaux, and Venezia. In total, Henry scored 45 goals and added 12 assists in 79 matches across all competitions with OH Leuven over three-and-a-half seasons before his transfer in August 2021.
On 24 August 2021, newly promoted Serie A side Venezia announced that Henry had joined the club in a permanent deal. The move came after intense transfer speculation throughout the summer, including earlier reports stating that OH Leuven had accepted a bid of £7 million by Scottish Premiership club Celtic. He made his debut for the club three days later in a 3–0 defeat to Udinese. He scored his first goal for the club in their next match, a 2–1 league win over Empoli on 11 September.
On 16 July 2022, Henry moved to Hellas Verona on a four-year contract.
On 16 July 2024, Serie B club Palermo announced the signing of Henry from Verona on loan with an obligation to buy under certain conditions.
On 3 July 2025, Henry returned to Belgium and signed a two-year contract with Standard Liège.

“Every living creature commences its existence under a form different from, and simpler than, that which it eventually attains.”
“If some great Power would agree to make me always think what is true and do what is right, on condition of being turned into a sort of clock and wound up every morning before I got out of bed, I should instantly close with the offer. The only freedom I care about is the freedom to do right; the freedom to do wrong I am ready to part with on the cheapest terms to any one who will take it of me.”
“Scientific men get an awkward habit — no, I won't call it that, for it is a valuable habit — of believing nothing unless there is evidence for it; and they have a way of looking upon belief which is not based upon evidence, not only as illogical, but as immoral.”
“Darwin's bulldog was patently a man of almost puritanical uprightness.”
“His voice was low, clear and distinct... Professor Huxley's method is slow, precise, and clear, and he guards the positions that he takes with astuteness and ability. He does not utter anything in reckless fashion which conviction sometimes countenances and excuses, but rather with the deliberation that research and close inquiry foster.”
