Former Liverpool captain Jordan Henderson is reportedly set to join Brentford as a free agent.
The 35-year-old midfielder is on the verge of a return to the Premier League after he left Ajax earlier this week.
Henderson, who was recently recalled to the England squad by Thomas Tuchel, left Liverpool in 2023 for a lucrative payday in Saudi Arabia at Al-Ettifaq.
However, he soon pulled the plug on his controversial move and headed to the Eredivisie to mixed success with the Amsterdam giants.
But according to The Athletic, Henderson is set to join Brentford on a two-year deal. He is said to have prioritised a return to the Premier League, with the Bees winning the race for his signature.
