The England international ended his time in the Saudi Pro League after just six months, leaving Al Ettifaq this week.

The 33-year-old has since penned a two-and-half-year deal with the Dutch giants after terminating his deal with Al Ettifaq.

According to Dutch outlet Ajax Life, Henderson's number six shirt has smashed the record for sold shirts an Ajax player in 24 hours.

Henderson has now reportedly broken the record held by former Manchester United defender Daley who returned to the club in 2018.

"Don't believe what you read in the press. It had nothing to do with anything but football," Henderson said, as per Sky Sports.

"I felt it was the perfect opportunity to come to such a huge club and showcase what I've tried to do my whole life - to dedicate myself to football.

"The welcome here has been incredible and I'm overwhelmed to be given the opportunity at a great football club and to repay the faith shown in me.

"Over the next two-and-a-half years, I will give everything to get the club back on track and to be as successful as possible."
