Henderson keen to stay at Sunderland, while Fulham signs Omri Altman, and Nathan Delfouneso is loaned to Burnley
Jordan Henderson wants to stay at Sunderland
Sunderland’s 20-year-old midfielder, http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Jordan-Henderson-c19102 revealed he planned to stay at the Stadium of Light and was not leaving in the summer. There were rumors linking the players to a move to other Premier League sides, such as Manchester United, however,
Henderson denied all such claims.
Henderson said while speaking to reporters, “I do feel I have improved this season. I'm a better player than I was 12 months ago. It has been another great season for me. I have had some ups and downs along the way, but its all part of my development.”
The midfielder feels he had improved during his time at Sunderland, and even though a new deal has not been agreed upon as yet, Henderson is determined to stay. There were talks of the player having already signed a new contract but Sunderland boss, Steve
Bruce dismissed the buzz.
Henderson spoke of his desire of remaining with his home-town club, he continued, “I'm playing every week in the Premier League and that's all I have ever dreamed of doing. I'm young and I'm playing for Sunderland. I just want to keep doing that, keep improving,
keep getting better as a player.”
Henderson has been a key part of Steve Bruce’s squad, earning his place in the starting XI with his consistent performances. However, he has had some problems with untimely injuries, which have kept him sidelined. He still remains an important part of the
team and it is highly unlikely he will be making an exit this summer.
Fulham signs 16-year-old Omri Altman
Fulham have surprised everyone by beating some of the top Premier League sides to sign 16-year-old midfielder, Omri Altman. The Maccabi Tel Aviv midfielder had previously trained with http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Liverpool-c39809 and Arsenal but ended up signing a deal with the London side.
Fulham boss, Mark Hughes revealed he was pleased to have signed the Israeli youngster, who is one of the most exciting upcoming young players. Altman will turn 17 at the end of March, which is when the deal with Fulham will be finalised.
The Israeli outfit said in an official statement, “Maccabi Tel Aviv have reached agreement with English side Fulham for the transfer of youth player Omri Altman. The transfer is now dependant on him signing his professional contract.”
Nathan Delfouneso on loan to Burnley
http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Darren-Bent-c10358 in the January transfer window, it was obvious Delfouneso would not have regular first
team opportunities and would be better off with another side for this season.
Delfouneso made 16 appearances for Aston Villa this season but will now be featuring for Burnley this season, who were on the lookout for a striker. Their hit man, Charlie Austin dislocated his shoulder and has been sidelined for the rest of the season.
The http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/England-c749 under-21 international therefore has joined Burnley at a crucial time, where he will be guaranteed first team football. He could be making his debut as soon as this Tuesday against Hull City.
