Jordan Henderson acknowledges the crowd after the Saudi Pro League match between Al-Ettifaq and Damak at Prince Mohamed bin Fahd Stadium on Sept. 2, 2023 in Ad Dammam, Saudi Arabia.
England international Jordan Henderson abruptly ended his playing time in Saudi Arabia's Pro League, dealing a blow to the kingdom's ambitious plans to make its domestic league an international soccer hub.
Former Liverpool captain Henderson on Thursday signed a two-and-a-half-year deal with Dutch side Ajax shortly after the 33-year-old agreed to mutually terminate his contract with Saudi Arabia's Al-Ettifaq.
Henderson's U-turn on playing in the Saudi Pro League comes six months after his controversial decision to sign with the club.
Henderson's hasty exit from Saudi Arabia marks the end of "a miserable episode in a previously exemplary career," according to BBC Sport's chief soccer writer, and raises questions about both the midfielder's reputation as well as the image of the Saudi Pro League.

A three-judge panel of the federal appeals court in Washington heard arguments on Tuesday in a momentous case over former President Donald J. Trump’s claim that he is immune from criminal charges for the efforts he took to overturn the 2020 election.
A ruling by the court — and when it issues that decision — could be a major factor in determining when, or even whether, Mr. Trump will go to trial in the federal election case.
Here are some takeaways:All three judges signaled skepticism with Trump’s position.
The judges on the Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit appeared unlikely to dismiss the charges against Mr. Trump on grounds of presidential immunity, as he has asked them to do.
The two Democratic appointees on the court, Judge J. Michelle Childs and Judge Florence Y. Pan, peppered John Sauer, a lawyer for Mr. Trump, with difficult questions.

"Make Amazon Pay", a campaign coordinated by the UNI Global Union, said strikes and protests would take place in more than 30 countries from Black Friday - the day after the U.S. Thanksgiving holiday, when many retailers slash prices to boost sales - through to Monday.
In Germany, Amazon's second-biggest market by sales last year, around 250 workers were on strike at a Leipzig warehouse and around 500 at an Amazon warehouse in Rheinberg, trade union Verdi said on Friday.
More than 200 workers were striking on Friday at Amazon's warehouse in Coventry, England as part of a long-running dispute over pay.
The striking workers were chanting their demand for a pay rise to 15 pounds ($18.69) an hour.
Amazon has remained popular in Europe even as rivals like Shein and Temu have seen rapid growth.

REUTERS/Mike Blake/File Photo Acquire Licensing RightsNov 22 (Reuters) - Broadcom (AVGO.O) on Wednesday closed its $69 billion acquisition of cloud-computing firm VMware (VMW.N) after receiving regulatory approval in last major market China and ending a months-long saga.
The deal, one of the biggest globally when announced in May 2022, was the latest in CEO Hock Tan's efforts to boost the chipmaker's software business.
However, the transaction faced tough regulatory scrutiny across the world and the companies had delayed the closing date three times.
Big Tech mergers such as Microsoft's (MSFT.O) now-closed $69 billion purchase of the "Call of Duty" publisher Activision have faced heightened regulatory pressure from the U.S. Federal Trade Commission under its Chair Lina Khan.

[1/3] Lucid’s Gravity electric SUV is seen in a preview at Lucid’s headquarters in Newark, California, U.S. November 3, 2023.
Success of the Gravity, which was unveiled in Los Angeles ahead of the auto show opening on Friday, will be crucial for Lucid.
To stoke demand, EV makers have joined a price war sparked this year by market leader Tesla (TSLA.O).
Many, including Tesla, Ford (F.N) and General Motors (GM.N), have pushed back planned EV and battery factory expansion or additions.
That will be key for the full-size luxury Gravity SUV, which features a steering wheel that is more square than round and a 34-inch curved cockpit display.
