Jordan Henderson hires van and goes on 8-hour road trip to watch England in Euro 2024 final against Spain

JORDAN HENDERSON ventured on an eight-hour road trip to get to Berlin for the Euro 2024 final.

The England midfielder was not chosen for the Euros despite previously being a regular under Gareth Southgate.

Henderson, 34, was unable to get flights to the German capital to watch his former team-mates try to end England’s 58-year wait for glory against Spain.

And he was willing to do whatever it takes to ensure he was inside the Olympiastadion to cheer on the Three Lions.

The Ajax star hired a van with family and drove eight hours from Amsterdam to Berlin.

Henderson posted a picture on Instagram of the motorway as his journey began this morning.

And the ex-Liverpool captain finally made it to the stadium with just an hour to go until kick-off.

He was spotted by ITV cameras in the stands alongside fellow ex-England players-turned supporters David Seaman and Peter Crouch – and celebs like KSI and Kano.

Henderson was left out of the Three Lions squad for the Euros after winning 53 of his 81 caps under Southgate.

But after departing Liverpool last summer, he had a nightmare spell in Saudi Arabia with Al-Ettifaq.

After just six months in the Middle East, he sensationally ripped up his £700,000-a-week contract as he struggled to settle in his new surroundings.

He then took a huge pay cut and penned a two-and-a-half year contract with Ajax.
