Henderson hopes Klopp has a 'fairytale' ending at Liverpool

Jordan Henderson hopes former manager Jurgen Klopp can enjoy a "fairytale" ending at Liverpool.

The German announced his plan to leave the Reds at the end of the season at the start of 2024, bringing down the curtain on a successful nine-year stint.

Henderson, who left Anfield in the summer for a controversial move to Saudi Arabia, was a massive part of Klopp's success at Anfield, winning eight trophies, including the Champions League and Premier League.

Klopp's farewell tour has already seen Liverpool win silverware as they lifted the Carabao Cup last month and they are still gunning for the Premier League, Europa League and FA Cup.

And 33-year-old Henderson, who was speaking ahead of Ajax's Europa Conference League game with Aston Villa in Amsterdam tomorrow, wants Klopp to enjoy the perfect send off.

He said: "Jurgen has had an amazing time at Liverpool, everything we achieved was because of him.

"He achieved everything when he came in and I just hope the end of the story is a fairytale for him and the boys because they all deserve it.

"They all work so hard, last season was so tough on many different aspects on and off the field so for this season to be going as well as it has, I'm so proud of them.

"I was a captain for a long time there. All of the team still feel like my brothers really.

"To watch them do so well, I'm so proud of how they're doing and I really want to see them end the season the way they have been playing the whole year.

"Let's hope they can end the season on a high and win as many trophies as possible."
