Liverpool Players Rally Around Jordan Henderson After Saudi Arabia Move Confirmation
With Jordan Henderson having now confirmed his switch to Saudi Arabia, the colleagues he will leave behind have rallied around to show their support for the departing captain.
Long-awaited confirmation of the midfielder’s move to the Middle East came on Wednesday night as he addressed fans on social media after calling time on his 12-year spell at Anfield.
While there is still yet to be an announcement from Liverpool themselves, Henderson has already been spotted training with his new teammates ahead of the next chapter which will take place under the stewardship of former Red Steven Gerrard.
Current and Former Reds Show Support for Henderson
It has been a highly-contentious transfer given the 33-year-old’s previous support for the LGBTQ+ community and the oppression that those groups face in his new country, but his now ex-colleagues have vocalised their support for what has unquestionably been an incredible Liverpool career.
Ibrahima Konate gave his best wishes as he shared a post of the two embracing during the incredible quadruple chase of 2021/22, with the simple but effective caption: “All the best captain.”
