He's apparently unhappy in Saudi Arabia and wants to leave.
He's getting paid a reported £700'000 per week (but apparently he didn't go for the money).
I don't care how much I hate my job, hate the country I live in, miss my family etc, if you're paying me £700'000 per week I am going to see out my contract.
What happened to the money Al-Ettifaq paid to Liverpool for him? Why would you allow a player to leave after paying many millions for him leave for free 6 months later? Seems a bit dodgy.

Isn’t everything to do with the Saudis and football dodgy? | |

To be fair, I think he has now achieved the goals he set when he went there. He has gained the advancements of LGBTQ+ rights in the Middle East, and of course spread the beautiful game far and wide.
He's my hero. | | | |

Might have got this the wrong way round but I thought part of his going abroad was so he could assist with developing the game out there?
Well he's devoloped his bank account at least.

It's developed now Ted. Some of his club's attendances have been as high as 650 people. So his work is done and he's heading back. | | | |

Don't want to see him anywhere near the England squad this summer. Not good enough anymore and an arsehole to boot. Hoping Gareth jettisons him, but not holding my breath. | | | |

Hopefully this Phillips to Palace thing materialises so one of the other options we have in that spot is actually playing some football. | | | |

Sir Waistcoat has his team of players that he trusts and that team firmly includes Henderson and Maguire.
As long as they still have 2 legs physically attached they will be in the team. | | | |

Or, you know, just play one pivot in Declan Rice and use our wealth of attacking options in front of him. Bellingham is box to box. Play a Grealish or Eze in that midfield 3, then have Foden, Kane and AN Other up top. Given how much possession England have and how strong the squad is, just go out to score more goals than the oppo. Two holding midfielders is ludicrous for England. | | | |

I saw a picture the other day of a game going on and the ground was pretty much empty apart from a few blokes scattered around the stadium with their camels.
I suppose they take their camels for a walk and grab a game at the same time? | |

'I know people think it was all about the money, but even as a little kiddie at primary school, when we were asked what we wanted to do when we were grown-ups, I told my teacher I wanted to help develop the professional game in Saudi Arabia, whilst respecting their right to imprison and flog homosexuals. When in Rome and all that, especially when they're paying crazy money.
Six months on, assessing the situation, I think the Saudi game is now developed to fu ck, and I feel the time is right to seize the opportunity to play football in a new country, and experience a different culture where the bloke signing my pay cheque isn't responsible for having gay people thrown in jail and whipped hundreds of times. I'm going to the Netherlands with an open mind - it's not for me to say they should be whipping gay people, beheading people, murdering government critics etc.' [Post edited 17 Jan 14:59]

The money is obscene regardless but to be fair to him, it's no where near 700k. There's also a lot of tax implications so his take home, especially now he's leaving will be no where near the numbers reported. He lives in Dubai and flies over for training and matches (but make sure you do your recycling pls).
Some other players have been looked at this window and they've openly rejected really good moves because of the tax issues and how much you have to pay back should you leave the country. The Saudis aren't going to be stupid with their money, you're not going to be able to come over nick silly money and then disappear in a few months.
I don't think he's anywhere near relevant for England anymore, so hoping that doensn't come off but he tried to get a move to Spurs on deadline day in August but there was no chance he was going to be allowed to go in the same window. | | | |

Harsh Konk, they only imprison and flog homosexuals when the roofs of high buildings are too full for flying lessons. | |

I’d have Foden in midfield with Rice as the pivot and Bellingham box to box. But it’s worth pointing out that whenever Southgate’s tried to drop the double pivot, we’ve lacked control of games and it’s led to some poor results including the 4-0 loss at home to Hungary in the Nations League. | | | |

Madness. Better to go 1-0 up and hold what you have 
I don't think Phillips is all that either anyway, his first touch goes further than he can pass. | |

"Two holding midfielders is ludicrous".
Can you get down to reception ASAP, please, we have Aitor Karanka waiting for you. Many thanks  | |

No where near £700k after tax you say? So he's taking home about £350,000 a week if tax takes half?
Schit, I didn't realise he was that badly off. | | | |

I don't think anyone is hung up on what the 'take home' might be on a six figure a week salary. | |
| |
| Jordan Henderson to Ajax on 16:17 - Jan 17 with 5719 views | JordanFoster |
No I get that, I was more saying the point the press definitely are as the 700k has grabbed headlines. Apologies wasn't saying the take home was peanuts. | | | |

To be fair the only interaction we'd have with Ajax these days is if we bought some to clean the toilets and catering kitchens. | |

I don't know mate. A club that paid north of £10m for Chuba Akpom feels like an ideal place to be hawking some of our wasters around. | | | |

I have heard Chuba Akpom but didn't care for their last album. | |
