Henderson, who moved from Liverpool FC to the Saudi Pro League club in the summer for a fee of 14 million euros, is to be loaned from the “Old Lady” for 18 months. The deal includes the possibility of an early exit next summer. In addition, the Serie A club will only cover 1.5 million euros of Henderson’s salary during the loan, which, according to various reports, amounts to between 400,000 and 800,000 euros per week. Henderson had signed a contract in Saudi Arabia until 2026, but according to the Times, he wants to leave his club again – after the veteran had previously defended his much-discussed transfer to Al-Ettifaq in detail against criticism. The English Premier League – or another club in Europe – was mentioned as his alleged destination. At the beginning of the week, the veteran had already been linked to Ajax Amsterdam (background).

It is said that Henderson struggles with the lower standards of Saudi football and the often empty stands, which is why he is seeking a return to Europe. With this he also wants to improve his chances of participating in the European Championships with the “Three Lions” in the summer. Henderson received criticism of the move to Al-Ettifaq, among other things, because homosexual acts are illegal in Saudi Arabia and can be punished with the death penalty, while the professional had strongly supported the LGBTQ community in the past.
