Jordan Henderson was handed a shock recall to England's squad on Friday, with Thomas Tuchel welcoming him back into the fold after a 16-month exile.
Henderson, 34, left the Three Lions camp under a dark cloud after garnering criticism for joining Saudi Pro League side Al-Ettifaq, having previously established himself as a strong voice against homophobia in football.
His stint in the Middle East was short-lived, with the Liverpool legend sealing a switch to Dutch giants Ajax less than six months after leaving Anfield for Saudi Arabia.
The midfielder quickly took the captain's armband with Ajax but his spell in Amsterdam hasn't been smooth-sailing.
