Jordan Henderson spent 12 years at Liverpool but saw his time at Anfield come to an end in July
Jordan Henderson has been branded a "mercenary" by former Crystal Palace chairman Simon Jordan after the midfielder's comments on his decision to leave Liverpool for Saudi Arabia this summer.
Henderson has since come under fire following his comments, with many supporters pointing out there would be little motivation to secure this move aside from the lucrative sums of money involved in the 33-year-old swapping the Premier League for the Middle East. "It's ridiculous for him to say that he hasn't gone to Saudi predominantly for the money," said the talkSPORT host. "I don't care if he has gone for the money or not but, the bottom line is, that's what he has gone there for. Jordan Henderson cannot get past the inevitable. I would much rather him turn around and say 'One of the driving factors was the money'.
