Burna Boy gifted Thierry Henry his chain after performing at the 2023 UEFA Champions League.
Thierry Henry is a French professional football coach, pundit, and former player.
He is considered one of the greatest strikers of all time and one the greatest players in Premier League history.
Manchester City won the 2023 UCL on Saturday night in Turkey after defeating Inter Milan in the final by 1-0.
Burna Boy performed just before the kick-off inside the Ataturk Stadium to entertain the audience and viewers.
After Inter Milan’s defeat, the singer got in a chat with Peter Schmeichel, Jamie Carragher, and Micah Richards.
They bantered over the game and Burna Boy gifted his diamond necklace to Thierry Henry who was also present.
The singer, while responding to his interviewers, told Thierry Henry he could keep the chain if he wished to.
Burna Boy has been on something of a winning streak in recent years.
On June 4, he sold out an 80,000-capacity stadium in London, making him the first African artiste to headline a UK stadium solo.
Burna Boy started to gain fame after releasing ‘Like to Party’, the lead single from his debut album ‘L.I.F.E’ in 2013.
In 2021, the singer’s fifth album ‘Twice As Tall’ won the ‘Best World Music Album’ category at the Grammy Awards.
Last April, he was ranked the African artiste with the highest revenue from a single concert.
