SAUDI club Al Etiffaq agreed to terminate Jordan Henderson’s contract after only six months; Ajax have offered the midfielder a two-and-half-year deal; he will fly to Amsterdam on Thursday to complete a medical but is still waiting a work visa – he’ll be ineligible to play this weekend
Jordan Henderson will fly to Amsterdam on Thursday to undergo a medical at Ajax after agreeing terms on a two-and-half-year deal.
He is expected to arrive at Amsterdam Schipol airport by private jet on Thursday afternoon.
Henderson will then undertake a medical examination at the Amsterdam University Medical Centre.
Sky Sports News reported on Wednesday that a delegation from the Dutch club were travelling to Manchester to finalise the terms of Henderson’s contract, where meetings continued late into the evening.
The midfielder will not be eligible to play this weekend as Ajax are still securing a work permit to allow him to play in Europe.
The Dutch club, fifth in the Eredivisie, face RKC Waalwijk on Sunday and are 23 points shy of league leaders PSV.
They believe Henderson will help them push for European qualification during the remainder of the campaign.
