Henderson has made over 50 appearances for Ajax after joining then. He was their captain since the time of his arrival to The Netherlands. The former Liverpool player has now said goodbye to the Dutch League and is ready to start a new chapter in his life.

However, it was Brentford who managed to complete the agreement with Henderson and the formal documents are all set to be exchanged in the upcoming days.
Jordan Henderson could be perfect addition to Bees squad after the departure of Christian Norgaard
Jordan Henderson is likely to be the perfect replacement for Christian Norgaard, who has been announced as an Arsenal player for the upcoming campaign.
