Henderson’s new contract will see him remain at Anfield until he’s 35, which is the same age vice-captain James Milner is right now.
The 31-year-old reportedly garnered interest from Atletico Madrid and Paris Saint-Germain, when news broke of a bump in negotiations with Liverpool, as per The Athletic – but those rumours can now be dashed.
Henderson joined the Reds at the age of 21 in 2011 and has proven himself as one of the most influential captains in the world over the last decade, picking up major honours and earning the respect of his peers.
