England midfielder Jordan Henderson is close to joining Ajax after less than six months at Saudi Arabian club Al-Ettifaq.
Preparations are being made for his arrival in Amsterdam but no deal has yet been concluded.
The midfielder, 33, signed a three-year contract worth a reported £700,000 a week with Al-Ettifaq when he left Liverpool in a £12m deal in July.
