Liverpool captain Jordan Henderson completed his move to Saudi Pro League side Al-Ettifaq, becoming the latest big-name player to be lured to the Gulf state.

Henderson, who posted a farewell message on Wednesday, has ended a 12-year stay at Anfield, during which he won every major trophy.

The 33-year-old, who played 492 matches for Liverpool, scoring 33 goals, has finalized a deal with reported wages of up to £700,000-a-week.

Liverpool are due to receive an initial £12 million ($15.5 million) from the Saudi club, as the Reds manager Jurgen Klopp paid tribute to his departing skipper.
