They later welcomed daughter Alba in 2015, and son Myles in February 2020.

In an interview, the Liverpool captain admitted his young children are already following in his footsteps.

Two-year-old Myles is “kicking the ball around” and even aiming at the net, whilst eight-year-old Elexa has started collecting Match Attax football cards and going to training.

Talking about Elexa, Henderson said: “My girl has started playing now and enjoys it. I am going to try and get out and watch the Women’s Euros over this summer, because she is asking questions and getting involved in it now.”

The Henderson family live in a sizeable mansion in Cheshire.
