Liverpool captain Jordan Henderson has agreed deal to join Saudi pro league side, Al Ettifaq.
With no official approach having been made from any potential suitors, the 33-year-old was part of the Reds squad that travelled on Saturday for their 10-day training camp in Donaueschingen.
But despite regularly taking part in training, Henderson was sidelined for the warm-up game in Karlsruhe due to fresh developments towards his deal to join Steven Gerrard in Saudi Arabia.
Henderson is said to have spoken to manager Jurgen Klopp and has been given the go ahead to leave the club.

Reports claim the Liverpool captain will quadruple his salary to £700,000 per week if he moves to the Saudi pro league, with Al Etiffaq ready to offer him a three-year contract.
