Jordan Henderson has promised to vow to stay in Ajax until the summer after supporting his request to participate in Monaco.
According to the Daily de Telegraaf, based in Amsterdam, former international England told the club yesterday that he would not play for them again if they did not allow him to move to Monte Carlo in this transfer window.
Henderson was then stripped of the captain, but was still playing in the Europa League win last night over Galatasaray.
However, according to De Telegraaf, Henderson has made a complete turn and, speaking after playing in the dressing room, informed the club that he would stay until the end of the season.

The 34 -year -old joined Ajax 12 months ago after a abused spell in Saudi Arabia and has been developed, helping them to second in Eredivisie behind PSV Eindhoven.
And his initial willingness to jump the ship was outraged by a former defender Ajax Frank de Boer, who criticized Henderson not to deal with the media and explain his actions.
He said to Ziggo Sport: “Henderson does not need to appear in front of the camera before the race. He may just focus on the race and then appear in front of the camera.
“This is nonsense. Henderson has other things in his mind and does not feel like responding.”
Sneijder invites Henderson to “he is a man”
Former Ajax and Real Madrid midfielder Wesley Sneijder were just as impressed and were embarrassed about why Henderson was not wearing the armband against Galatasaray without any proper explanation either from him or the club.
Sneijder said, “Don’t be so difficult. You just play this match with the armband and then say,” Yes guys, I don’t know yet. “
“Something is happening. We will see what happens tomorrow.
“Be a man and get up. At the moment you get all these speculations and you are creating upheaval. It could have been much calmer if he had just worn the armchair.”
