Liverpool hero John Aldridge says Jordan Henderson's imminent move to Al-Ettifaq is a problem for the club.
The Reds have accepted a 12m offer from Al-Ettifaq for their captain.
Aldridge told the Sunday World: "You can see why Liverpool would have taken the money when it was offered for Fabinho because he was very poor last season and 40million for a player of his age is a good deal, but I felt they needed to keep Henderson.
If there was to be a second senior midfielder to leave, I'd have said Thiago might have been the one as he has been injured a lot since his move to Liverpool.
"Henderson has been a massive player for Liverpool on and off the field over the last few years and he will be a big loss to Klopp.
"I can understand why he has been tempted to take the money being offered in Saudi Arabia, but this gives Liverpool a big problem."
