Roy Keane hails Liverpool star Jordan Henderson and made Jurgen Klopp claim

Jordan Henderson scored England's opener during the 2022 FIFA World Cup round of 16 clash against Senegal on Sunday, 4 December.

After being immaculately set up by Jude Bellingham, Liverpool star Henderson expertly guided the ball home with his left foot. He responded to the critics with a commanding performance against Senegal.

Manchester United legend Roy Keane has now made an interesting claim about Henderson. Keane said that Henderson has always been productive and he never doubted the player.

Keane further added that without quality, a top manager like Jurgen Klopp wouldn't have been banking on a player like him for so long.

Keane told ITV (via Rousing the Kop):

“I’ve never had any doubt with Jordan, Jordan can produce, He’s been a rock-solid professional player. Jordan is an excellent player and just as important, excellent character and personality. Klopp has been playing him for a long time. If he wasn’t sure on him, he wouldn’t be playing.”

Henderson and England will next play France in the quarter-finals of the 2022 FIFA World Cup on Saturday, 10 December.
