Jordan Henderson is reportedly set to be made the new captain of Ajax after impressing his manager and team-mates with his leadership skills.

The former Liverpool skipper has only made one appearance since returning to Europe from Al-Ettifaq but could already be named as captain of the club.

This is due to former Spurs winger Steven Bergwijn, the current captain, being sidelined by injury.

The report continues to state that Henderson donning the armband may not be a one-off as it is understood Ajax coach John van’t Schip could look to make him the permanent captain.

It is believed that Henderson has had such a ‘positive effect on the dressing room’ that he could be named as permanent captain.

The Englishman has seen his fellow Ajax midfielder Kenneth Taylor heap praise on his, revealing that he has been a huge boost to the dressing room.

Jordan’s presence in the team and dressing room is huge,’ Taylor revealed. 

‘Everyone can tell he has played at top level in Europe and in England for years. Jordan is a leader and a coach on the pitch in such a good and natural manner.

 ‘He is constantly supporting young players, he sees things quicker than others and tells us how to anticipate all the time. 

‘That is already resulting in a more fluent playing style. Simple things are now stuck in the head of the players, which creates a lot of automatic things in our game. I love all that.’

It remains to be seen as to whether he will be named as the permanent captain or share duties with Bergwijn, but he will take the armband on Sunday for the first time since his move to the Netherlands.
