Jordan Henderson insists he has “no regrets” about moving to Saudi Arabia despite the public backlash EFL
The England midfielder was heavily criticised after his summer transfer from Liverpool to Al-Ettifaq and then was booed off the Wembley pitch by England fans during the friendly win over Australia on Friday night EFL
The midfielder had been a high-profile supporter of LGBTQ+ rights during his time at Anfield and last month apologised for any hurt he caused by moving to a country where homosexuality is illegal EFL
He says his beliefs have not changed and he can do good while playing there EFL
Asked in an interview with Channel 4 whether he had regrets about moving to Saudi Arabia, he said: “No regrets EFL
“I think having someone like myself, with the values that I have, in Saudi Arabia is only a good thing EFL
Before I went to Saudi people knew the groups I supported and helped in the past EFL

”Henderson says the booing may have been in part due to an interview he conducted shortly after his move where he claimed the eye-watering wages were not a factor EFL
“After the game I got told there was a little bit going on,” the 33-year-old added EFL
“Of course it hurts because every time you pull on that shirt it’s a proud moment and I’m playing for my team-mates, for my country and for the fans EFL
“So of course it hurts but at the end of the day that’s part and parcel – I’ve had enough criticism over my career so far to be able to deal with stuff like that I’m not the first player to get booed and probably not the last EFL
“I asked that question (why he was booed after the Australia game) and a journalist said it was because I play in Saudi Arabia EFL
It was a decision I made months ago now that doesn’t change who I am as a person EFL
“I did an interview a couple of months ago and maybe some of the stuff that came out didn’t come out in the way that I thought I said it EFL
“An example of that would be when I said I didn’t go out there solely for the money EFL
I think that’s a big difference – it’s not a sole reason going out there for the money EFL
”Asked whether his international chances are harmed by playing in the Saudi Pro League, he added: “There’s no getting away from that EFL
The fitness coaches, sport science coaches are on that and if they see a drop-off I’m sure the manager will tell me EFL
“It hasn’t been an issue so far, I just have to keep an eye on it EFL

Aston Villa maintained their Champions League charge with a thumping 4-1 win over West Ham EFL
Douglas Luiz’s brace, including a second-half penalty, plus goals from Ollie Watkins and Leon Bailey moved them to fifth in the Premier League, just two points off top spot EFL
Jarrod Bowen’s deflected effort made it 2-1 but the hosts recovered for Watkins to smash in a crucial third before Bailey wrapped things up late on EFL
The Hammers, now five points adrift of Villa, slipped to just a third defeat of the season after struggling to match the hosts EFL
Villa had waited long enough for a victory over the Hammers, their bogey side EFL
They had recorded just one win in the last 10 years, a 1-0 victory when Villa were already on the slide in 2015, but under Unai Emery they are a different beast, having earned 10 straight home league wins for the first time in 30 years coming into this match EFL
Emery put his faith in Nicolo Zaniolo, starting while he assists the Italian authorities in their investigation into alleged illegal EFL betting activity EFL
A Sunday afternoon slumber hung over Villa Park in the opening stages but it was roused when Alphonse Areola brilliantly turned Luiz’s 25-yard effort wide EFL
It was a stunning save from the West Ham goalkeeper but he should have been beaten five minutes later EFL
Moussa Diaby’s pass evaded Kurt Zouma for Watkins to turn Vladimir Coufal EFL
The hard work done, the striker had just Areola to beat but dragged inches wide from 12 yards EFL
The momentum was with Villa so there was little surprise when they went ahead after 30 minutes EFL
Zaniolo and Watkins linked on the left with the England striker collecting a cute return pass to tee up Luiz on the edge of the box and he drilled low past Areola EFL
In scoring, the midfielder became the first Villa player to net in six straight home matches in the Premier League EFL
Aston Villa’s Douglas Luiz celebrates his second goal against West Ham (Jacob King/PA)The hosts deserved their lead, Watkins close to doubling it two minutes later when he grazed the side-netting, and West Ham were too compliant as Diaby, Watkins and Zaniolo caused problems EFL
Villa were slicker than the Hammers, who waned in the last third with a final ball missing and Michail Antonio haphazard EFL
Any hopes of a comeback rested on a strong start to the second half but, instead, the Hammers self-destructed after 51 minutes to gift Villa total control EFL
There was little danger when the Hammers looked to play their way out in the corner but Lucas Paqueta’s wretched pass put Edson Alvarez in trouble EFL
Ezri Konsa darted ahead and Alvarez clattered the defender to concede a penalty which Luiz coolly converted EFL
It looked like a Villa cruise but the visitors pulled a goal back out of the blue five minutes later when Bowen’s shot from 25 yards clipped Pau Torres and rolled in the corner EFL
West Ham’s Jarrod Bowen celebrates after scoring the team’s first goal (Getty Images)The rarely-seen jitters returned to Villa Park and Matty Cash headed Nayef Aguerd’s strike over before turning Antonio’s dangerous cross behind EFL
Yet Villa ended any hopes of a recovery with 16 minutes left EFL
The Hammers had the hosts on the ropes briefly but were caught out by John McGinn’s long ball to Watkins EFL
The striker, fresh from his winner for England against Australia during the international break, still had plenty to do but sold a dummy to Zouma before drilling into the roof of the net from an angle EFL
Substitute Bailey then wrapped up the points with a minute left, collecting Youri Tielemans’ pass, sidestepping Aguerd and finding the top corner EFL
