Henderson to lead Premier League captains' response to Super League

Jordan Henderson is set to lead an emergency meeting of Premier League captains as the fallout from the proposed new European Super League continues.

The Liverpool skipper, Goal can confirm, is at the centre of the players’ response to the plans which have left football in crisis, and which have sparked outrage and condemnation across the game.

The Reds, of course, are one of six Premier League clubs involved in the plans for a breakaway competition, which would threaten to upset the entire balance of the domestic, European and international game as we know it.
