Henderson leaves Ajax. He has a clear goal
Former Liverpool midfielder Jordan Henderson, after a brief stint in Saudi Arabia, made a swift return to Europe by joining Ajax. Now, after a year and a half in Amsterdam, the midfielder has once again decided to change clubs.
Details: According to Sky Sports, Henderson has become a free agent after opting not to activate the clause for a 12-month contract extension. This means that any suitors for the player, who turned 35 in June, won’t have to negotiate with Ajax for his services.
And there are indeed clubs lining up for him. Reports suggest that two Premier League sides are showing interest. Henderson himself is targeting a move to a team where he can secure regular playing time, maximizing his chances of representing England at the World Cup.
Reminder: Henderson departs Ajax having played 57 matches, scoring one goal and providing nine assists. Previously, it was reported that Nottingham Forest have shown interest in signing him.
