Henderson leaves for Arabia and Liverpool player gets the news of a lifetime

With Jordan Henderson's departure ever closer to being announced, speculation over who will be his main replacement in midfield and in the Liverpool captaincy has been the most constant issue so far, but it seems that the England midfielder's foray into the Saudi Arabian league will have more repercussions than expected, and with the player no longer in a top league and in the most demanding competition, even his place in the England squad could be on the line.

Although the Three Lions team has with coach Gareth Southgate more than one player willing to perform the duties that Hendo had for some time now, from Merseyside seem to have the solution to this possible problem in the not too distant future, and it is said that the good performance of Curtis Jones could soon be rewarded with a call to the senior national team.

The proof of this fact can be seen by Southgate if he decides to watch some Liverpool games in which Jones had a more than acceptable participation in final Premier League matches, even having statistics that bordered on near perfection with high effectiveness in passes, not to mention the great ease that this player has when it comes to attacking.

Jones seeks double starting place

Even if Henderson's departure means the perfect opportunity for Jones to look for something to do for both England and Liverpool, this young player does have a very difficult task in both groups, and both Jurgen Klopp and Gareth Southgate can take into account the skills of this player, but within their list of possibilities, in none of them he is the main candidate for the starting line-up.
