The 34-year-old came to Ajax 12 months ago after an unfortunate magic in Saudi Arabia and gave them what helped them in second place in the Eredivisie behind PSV Eindhoven.
And his initial willingness to jump the ship made the former Ajax defender Frank de Boer angry, who criticized Henderson for not stating the media and explained his actions.
He said to Ziggo Sport: “Henderson does not have to appear in front of the camera before the game. He can simply concentrate on the match and then appear in front of the camera.
“This is nonsense. Henderson has other things in mind and doesn’t want to answer. “
Sneijder asks Henderson to “be a man”
Ex-Ajax and Real Madrid midfielder Wesley Sneijder were equally unimpressed and amazed why Henderson did not make the armband against Galatasaray without proper explanation of him or the club.
Sneijder said: “Be so difficult. You just play this match with the bracelet and then you say: ‘Yes, guys, I don’t know yet.’
“Something is going on. We’ll see what will happen tomorrow.
“Be a man and get up. At the moment you will receive all of these speculations and create unrest. It could have been much quieter if he had just worn the armband. “
