Jordan Henderson has reportedly agreed to join Saudi outfit Al Ettifaq this summer after receiving a contract worth £700,00 per week and it’s also being reported that his Liverpool teammate Fabinho is also attracting interest from the Middle East.
Al Ittihad are preparing an offer in the region of £40m for the former Monaco man and it appears that the Brazilian’s wife is interested in a move to the Gulf nation having already followed a Saudi travel page on Instagram.
This of course does not mean that our No. 3 is leaving Anfield this summer but it’s certainly interesting to see that his family is potentially already checking out the country to see what it has to offer.

Despite the 29-year-old struggling for form last term he has become recognised as one of the best holding midfielders in the world since his move to Merseyside in 2018.
Jurgen Klopp has already signed two new midfielders this summer in the form of Dominik Szoboszlai and Alexis Mac Allister but it would raise a few eyebrows if Fabinho was to leave the club.
We’ll just have to wait and see what happens in the coming days and weeks but we believe the Brazil international still has a lot more to give in a red shirt.

40m for a 29 year old who struggled for the majority of the season? Bite your hand off and go get Lavia.
Is that the 19 year old defensive midfielder Lavia who’s team shipped twice as many goals as Liverpool with Fabinho, did last season? Has the world gone mad? Let’s sell three experienced, Brazil, Spain and England internationals and replace them with a kid who shows some potential but barely has a season under his belt. This would leave us with our most inexperienced midfield in our history with the oldest being 24
You mean two, Thiago never played, Fabinho played poorly for most of the year and Hendo, really doesn’t offer much going forward, but was still pretty good. I look forward to new young players actually. Frustrating watching Hendo most of of the time in the final 3d.
We’re moving thru a transitional period so lets go big……short term pain for a better future ….. Henderson gone = excellent; Fab for 40m = good deal; any more non-essentials on the block ?
Selling Fabinho would be a grave mistake. Klopp should renew his contract for at least two yrs.
