Jordan Henderson sent Tottenham Hotspur transfer message with Liverpool admission
Jordan Henderson is “everything” Tottenham Hotspur need insists a former player at the north London club who has urged the Liverpool captain to join them.
Potential question marks have arisen over Henderson’s Anfield future after a shock report in the Athletic claimed no progress has been made over a new deal for the Reds skipper despite contract talks having taken place over the summer.
The Spurs Web cites White Hart Lane old boy Jamie O’Hara as telling talkSPORT that he would ‘love’ to see Henderson in a Tottenham shirt even though he admits that he cannot see the move actually happening.
He said: “I would love him at Spurs. He is everything we need.
“He’s a leader. A character on the pitch. He’s a driving force in midfield. I would absolutely love him to be at Spurs."

The Swiss never seemed a natural replacement for his more fleet-footed colleague, while Klopp never seemed convinced that he should stick with a 4-2-3-1 system that might have suited him better.
