Rangers-linked Jordan Henderson has been told that he is no longer 'suited' to the Premier League.

Former Liverpool captain Henderson joined Ajax in January 2024 following a ill-fated six month stint with Saudi Pro League side Al-Ettiifaq under his former Anfield teammate Steven Gerrard.

However, the Amsterdam giants have fallen on harder times and missed out on the title for a second successive season last month when a sensational collapse in the penultimate match of the campaign handed the championship to rivals PSV Eindhoven.

On Tuesday, reports emerged claiming that the 35-year-old has a clause in his contract at the Johan Cruyff Arena that will allow him to leave on a free transfer.

The Premier League and Champions League winner has been linked with a move to top tier side Nottingham Forest while talk over a return to boyhood club Sunderland - who are back in the Premier League next season for the first time in nine years - has never gone away.

Prior to Russell Martin's appointment at Ibrox, Henderson had been touted for a coaching role alongside old Liverpool pal Gerrard in Govan.

And now Forest been warned against signing the ageing star by talkSPORT presenter and Ipswich Town legend Alan Brazil.

The former Scotland forward does however see a move back to Wearside as a more viable option for the England international.

He said: "I don't want to have a go at Jordan.

"Because Jordan, when he first went [to Liverpool], I think Kenny [Dalglish] bought him, when he first went to Anfield, people weren't that sure, and then he proved them wrong.

"But he's 35 now, I think Forest...

That'd be ideal for him, Sunderland.

Play [for] Sunderland in the Premier League and enjoy it.

"I'm not saying it's his last season, because he loves his football, but he'll probably go into coaching, won't he Sunderland's the perfect move for him."
