Thomas Tuchel named Jordan Henderson in his first England squad, praising the Ajax midfielder for his leadership and winning mentality. Henderson, who previously faced criticism after leaving Liverpool for Al-Ettifaq, has thrived at Ajax, making 38 appearances this season. Tuchel noted Henderson’s character aligns with his vision for building a team that fans can be proud of, highlighting the importance of a balanced squad and team spirit as they approach the World Cup.
Jordan is a serial winner. He is captain of Ajax, he's available, he's played a lot of matches, he's played in Europe. What he brings to every team is leadership, character, energy, he makes sure that everyone lives by the standards. He embodies everything we are trying to build.
I truly believe Dan Burn and Jordan Henderson have every chance to be with us in the World Cup. Football in general but maybe even more international football is about team spirit.
