Jordan Henderson to take a desperate decision to leave Saudi football

The English midfielder Jordan Henderson would have surprised everyone in Al Ettifaq in the last few hours according to the British media, since he would have expressed to the Saudi club his desire to exit from the Saudi Pro League to make an unexpected return to the top of European football in the January transfer window.

According to the English football site The Athletic, Jordan Henderson would have started to regret his decision of joining Saudi football in the summer due to the lack of level of the league and the distance his team currently has from the top of the league, with Al Ettifaq currently having 25 points and being placed at the eighth position in the league.

Following these sources, Henderson would have already attracted the interest of Bayern Munich and Juventus as the main clubs interested in his signing, but a third option would have strongly blossomed to take the Englishman back to European football, as Ajax would be currently in advanced talks to sign the player.

Al Ettifaq would have gotten really surprised by the player’s decision

In this respect, Al Ettifaq would have shown their surprise by the decision of the player, who would be determined to leave the Saudi club and would have taken the desperate measure of reducing the salary received from the Damman-based institution in his potential next destination, which could heavily ease the negotiations with Ajax to seal the deal leading Henderson to Europe again.
