Romelu Lukaku speaking to Belgian Newspaper - Het Laatste Nieuws 🇧🇪
🎤 “Over your career where did you feel most at home?”
📢 “I’d have to say Everton, I felt I was at my best there, the fans were amazing. It’s a great Club.”
🎤 “What’s your next move?”
📢 “I’d like a return to England, I know I’m not in Chelsea’s plans but the Premier League is where I want to be”
I keep thinking how 3 little girls were killed & more were hurt & traumatised, & instead of talking about their precious lives, we are being forced to focus on violent entitled white men burning cars & towns, who don’t give a shit about women’s & girls’ safety.
🗞️ Jordan Henderson’s exit damaged him rather than us, says Saudi Pro League Chief Michael Emenalo 🇸🇦
“It wasn’t damaging at all for the league. It was damaging on a personal level because this is someone that we all admired and we tried our very best to help him adapt and to stay.
But sometimes these things are just beyond your own needs and just beyond professional. Jordan did a lot of good work here, did a lot of good work for Ettifaq and had inputs in ideas that have transformed that club and had an opportunity to know the country and the culture.
If you ask him privately now, he will tell you that he had no issues. But sometimes there is a confluence of things happening that makes individuals make a decision that I think is best for them.
I felt that is a guy who’s an ultra-professional and who had built a career, a magnificent, magnificent career through becoming Liverpool captain, England captain and maybe to, in his mind, he had an idea of how he wanted to finish.
And maybe at some point in the course of the season he just felt that he is not going to get that. That’s something that you have to respect and it’s not something that I agree with because I really admire him and I had a one-on-one with him to try to (persuade him to stay).”
Henderson came in for understandable criticism after his decision to move to Saudi Arabia for £12 million and wages of £350,000-a-week, when he was effectively forced out by Liverpool last summer, to play in a country where same sex relationships are banned.
The 33-year-old midfielder has been an ambassador for LGBTQ rights and was accused of betraying the gay community.
