Jordan Henderson - Soccer News, Rumors, & Updates

Selected for bench Henderson (ankle) is on the bench for Sunday's match against Nottingham Forest.

Impact Henderson was left out last game with an ankle injury but will not miss further time, as the midfielder has earned a bench spot. This gives the club the return of a starter, with one goal and three assists in 20 appearances (15 starts) this season. However, he has only started two of their past six games, falling out of favor a bit.

Impact Henderson missed last week's game against Chelsea in what was his first (and lone) absence of the campaign so far. The fact that the veteran midfielder is back in training suggests that he has an outside chance of returning this weekend, but a late call will be made closer to Sunday's 9 a.m. ET kickoff. Matthias Jensen should remain in the XI in Henderson's absence.

Misses call Saturday Henderson (ankle) is ruled out for Saturday's clash against Chelsea.

Impact Henderson misses the call Saturday despite returning to training earlier in the week and undergoing late testing. The club opts not to use him as he continues to manage his fitness after limited recent starts. Mathias Jensen and Mikkel Damsgaard are expected to fill the midfield during his absence.

Impact Henderson was back in training this week, and that implied his potential return, further reinforced as he is a late call for Saturday. This will lead to late testing to decide if the midfielder can play or how much he can play. He has been a regular starter much of the season, but has only started in two of their past five outings, so they will be prepared to go without him if needed, with Mathias Jensen or Mikkel Damsgaard as replacements.

Spotted training indoors Henderson (ankle) was spotted training indoors on Thursday, the club posted.

Impact Henderson was forced off at the break of Saturday's win against Sheffield Wednesday as a precaution and was spotted training indoors on Thursday, raising some doubts about his involvement in Saturday's clash against Chelsea. That said, the veteran has mainly been a bench option recently, starting two of his last six available games across all competitions for the Bees, therefore a potential absence won't significantly affect the starting XI.

Impact Henderson will be assessed in the coming days after suffering an ankle injury in Saturday's win against Sheffield Wednesday in the Carabao Cup. The midfielder was subbed off at the break as a precaution, and the Bees will hope the issue is only minor. That said, the veteran started only one Premier League game across his last five possible appearances, therefore a potential absence would represent only a minor loss for Brentford.

Impact Henderson went down with an injury in Wednesday's Carabao Cup match and is now facing a possible absence over the weekend. The midfielder will likely need to pass some testing to be an option, something to monitor as he is a regular starter, earning the start in 14 of his 16 appearances this campaign. That said, he will hope to see the star if fit, but has Mathias Jensen and Vitaly Janelt as possible replacements if he misses more out.

Signs with Brentford Henderson has completed a move to Brentford on a two-year deal from Ajax.

Impact Henderson left Liverpool two years ago, but he's seen the pitch plenty since his exit, appearing in 57 matches for Ajax in the last 18 months. At 35 years old, it's unlikely he cracks 20-plus starts or 2,000 minutes, but he'll provide leadership and experience in the Brentford team following some summer departures, including manager Thomas frank. Henderson figures to take over some of the leadership that Christian Norgaard provided, likely serving more as a voice rather than an every-game starter.
