Joe Cole claims that Jordan Henderson has put his England career in jeopardy by joining Al-Ettifaq as he suggests former Liverpool star won't be as sharp as Gareth Southgate's other midfield options

Joe Cole believes that Jordan Henderson has put his England career 'in jeopardy' by moving to Saudi Arabia.

Henderson featured for England in the draw against Ukraine on Saturday, with the midfielder making his first international appearance since joining Al-Ettifaq from Liverpool.

Although the 33-year-old remains part of the national team setup for now, Cole feels that Henderson could end up losing his place in the squad.

Cole suggested that playing in a division that isn't as intense as the Premier League may result in Henderson being less sharp.
