Thierry Henry will serve as an assistant to new Belgium coach, Roberto Martinez.
This was confirmed by the Belgian federation on Friday.
The former Arsenal striker and Sky Sports pundit, will work alongside Graeme Jones.
“Honoured to be assistant coach for Belgium. Thanks to Roberto Martinez and the Royal Belgian FA. Very excited. Can’t wait,” Henry tweeted.
Martinez said: “Thierry is an important figure. He will bring something different. He agreed right away to join us.
“He is someone who knows how to develop a collective mentality, how to work together to win. He won the World Cup in 1998 and has the experience to achieve great things.”
Before this role, Henry was an U18 coach at Arsenal. He left that position last month.
