Henderson posted on social media, “I’m sad to say that I will be leaving Al-Ettifaq with immediate effect.” “It wasn’t an easy choice, but I think this is what’s best for my family and me.
This is my chance to express my gratitude to the supporters and the club for their unwavering support throughout my tenure. I was immediately struck by the love. I’ll continue to watch and wish you luck. I wish you well going forward.”
“Jordan Henderson’s transfer to Amsterdam has been agreed upon by Ajax,” said a statement from the team. The former player for Sunderland and Liverpool, who was a free agent, agreed to a two-and-a-half year deal with Ajax that would expire on June 30, 2026.”
Henderson is officially an Ajax player! He and the club agreed on everything earlier on Thursday, then he passed his physical. Now, it’s official!
“It’s been a difficult year for the club, both on and off the field, but that’s the same for me in the past six months,” he said, according to the Ajax website. Thus, maybe, we might support one another in uniting, moving forward, and attempting to achieve maximum success soon.

“As soon as I found out about the chance, I became really happy and thrilled that it was available to me. It was something I wished to pursue and accomplish.“
John van ‘t Schip, the manager of Ajax, continued, saying: “We wanted an accomplished midfielder with leadership qualities.” We needed someone to come in right away because of the team’s injuries, in part. Jordan Henderson fits that description.
“First and foremost, the club would like to thank Jordan for his efforts and wish him the best of luck in his future endeavours,” stated Samer Al Misehal, president of Al-Ettifaq.
We always treat our athletes with courtesy. All the club and Jordan think that this prompt decision, made without any additional delay or distraction, is in the best interests of all parties.
His arrival will greatly improve our team. A football player of this calibre is vital to our many young players, both on and off the field.
“An English international player, he has won numerous awards with Liverpool, including the Champions League.” I’m glad he’s here.
