How bizarre, raises a few questions.

Why leave Ajax 12 months early… to join Brentford?

If it’s because he wants to play in the Premier League again (maybe for International reasons)…

Why not rejoin Sunderland, even if it means taking a pay cut?

This man has made some very strange footballing moves lately.

It does seem an odd choice, when there were rumours of rejoining his boyhood club I could understand it. Lots of players, particularly in South America, like to go back to where they started out at the end of their career but I can’t imagine a young Henderson was kicking the ball about with his friends dreaming of pulling on a Brentford shirt.

With their manager leaving, Norgaard (presumably who Henderson is the replacement for) and rumours around Mbuemo it feels like they could be in for a season of struggle.

Yeah, Kelleher is going to be busy.

Don’t think he wanted to be around a team that’s a sure fire relegation team. Probably thought it would harm his chances of an england call up.

Wouldn’t read too much into his decision of not joining Sunderland. Milly didn’t want to join Leeds as well.
