JORDAN HENDERSON has landed in Amsterdam as he prepares to join Ajax and end his stint with Saudi Arabian side Al-Ettifaq after just six months.
The former Liverpool captain, 33, is set to sign a two-and-a-half-year deal with the Dutch giants.
And Sky Sports filmed him coming out of Amsterdam Airport as he headed to the Dutch giants to complete the deal.
Henderson smiled for the cameras ahead of his switch to the Eredivisie.
He has agreed to pay his way out of his lucrative £700,000-a-week contract in order to make the switch.
It means he is not set to earn any money from his time in Saudi Arabia.
And he is taking a near-90 PER CENT pay cut to secure the transfer as he will reportedly earn just £77,000 a week at Ajax before tax – excluding bonuses.
That is less than he was earning at Liverpool and a world away from the £700,000 he was collecting every seven days from Al-Ettifaq – before he decided to walk away.
But he will still become the highest earner at Ajax as they bid to recover from a nightmare start to the season that saw them facing a battle with relegation at one point.
They now sit fifth in the Eredivisie, but their chances of a title push have already gone as PSV are 23 points above them, having not dropped a single point.
