Liverpool legend Jordan Henderson engraved his name in English football history again

Liverpool legend and currently Al Ettifaq player Jordan Henderson was one of the stars of England in their 1-1 draw against Ukraine on the fifth day of the Euro 2024 qualifiers, since the English midfielder returned with the English national team for the first time since he decided to join the Saudi Pro League this summer to start a new adventure in his career and be coached by Steven Gerrard.

In this sense, the presence of the English midfielder with the Three Lions went further than the fact of starting a new game with them, and Jordan Henderson engraved his name in the English football history, but also in the Arabian football, which would be given new steps in its career to become worldly recognized.

In the game against Ukraine, Jordan Henderson became the first Saudi Pro League to play a game with the English national team in 151 years of history (1872-2023), a fact that would be remembered in the future both in the English and in Arabian football as Jordan Henderson would have become a pioneer.

Southgate keeps on calling up Jordan Henderson with the Three Lions

The English international completed a decent game and saw how Gareth Southgate accomplished his promise of keeping on calling him up with the English national team once he left the Premier League to join the Saudi Pro League, where his team, Al Ettifaq is currently on the fifth position of the table after Al Hilal, Al Taawon, Al Ittihad and Al Alhi, having achieved three victories, one defeat and one draw in five games of the competition.
