Jordan Henderson is looking for a move away from the Saudi Pro League.

The midfielder is said to be unsettled in the middle east, and he wants to move back to Europe.

Of course, ideally, Henderson would come back to the Premier League, but at the age of 33, it may be tough for the former Liverpool captain to get a move back to England.

There has been some chat about Henderson getting a move to Arsenal this January as the north London club look to bolster their midfield.

Speaking on Filthy Fellas, Nedum Onuoha has been discussing the idea of Henderson moving back to the Premier League, and he says that the £13m man shouldn’t go to Arsenal, claiming that he wouldn’t get a game at the Emirates these days.

Henderson would be a pointless signing for Arsenal

Onuoha spoke about the midfielder.

“If he comes over, which team do you think Jordan Henderson could go back to in the Prem?”

“For me it’s not who could he go back to it’s who would want him? He wouldn’t go to Arsenal because he wouldn’t play. Not because he’s not good enough, but that’s not Arsenal’s profile, last season they were the second-youngest team in the Prem,” Onuoha said.

Useful

Henderson may not be a guaranteed starter for Arsenal, but we can’t help but think he’d be useful for the Gunners.

The England international has been there and done it at the highest level for years, and he could be the perfect leader to take this young side to the next level.

Yes, he’s not a technical marvel, but he is a great leader who has experienced all there is to experience in this game.

As a depth option and a dressing room leader, Arsenal could actually do a lot worse than signing Henderson this month.
