Ajax agrees to let Henderson go for free, will the newly promoted Sunderland take the opportunity to find a leak

According to news from the local British media Mirror, Ajax of the Eredivisie team is willing to let Henderson leave the team's midfielder in free this summer. It is rumored that the soon-to-be-35-year-old England international has a great chance to return to his old club Sunderland.

Henderson left Liverpool for 12 years since the summer of 2023 and switched to Saudi team Daman Cooperation (Alyitifak), but chose to leave the team after only half a year and joined Ajax in January last year. Henderson scored 1 goal and contributed 6 assists in 45 games this season, but Ajax changed coach earlier and was coached by Hetinga. He had no intention of retaining Henderson, who had a weekly salary of up to 100,000 pounds. In addition, he only had one year left in the contract. Ajax has notified the veteran that he can return to his freedom this summer.

Sunderland won another Premier League place after 8 years. He hopes to invite experienced players like Henderson to return to the nest to help the team relegate, and can also replace Bellingham, who is likely to leave the team. In fact, the two sides had already contacted each other in December last year, and Ajax is now willing to release people for free, so this transfer is a great chance. England played against Andorra in the European qualifiers of the World Cup, and Henderson was the main starter, which shows that he is still strong on the court.
