Recent reports have sparked rumors of former Sunderland player Jordan Henderson making a sensational return to his old club. The Wearside-born midfielder, who made a name for himself at Liverpool before moving to Al Ettifaq and then Ajax, is now being linked with a move back to the Stadium of Light.
According to Football Insider, Sunderland have already reached out to Henderson in hopes of securing a deal that could boost their promotion chances in the new year. The experienced midfielder, who has a wealth of trophies under his belt from his time at Liverpool, is seen as a potential leader for the Black Cats as they aim for a return to the Premier League.
However, Mackem News reports that Sunderland may face difficulties in finalizing a deal with Henderson due to his high wages at Ajax. The club will need to carefully consider the financial implications of bringing him back, as well as the impact it could have on the development of their young players.
Despite Sunderland’s interest, The Sun suggests that other Premier League clubs are also keeping an eye on Henderson’s situation. It remains to be seen whether a return to his former club is on the cards for the 34-year-old midfielder as the transfer window approaches.
