Confirming his departure on Wednesday, Henderson wrote: "Being made the captain of Liverpool Football Club was one of the greatest honours of my life.
"From the day the armband was passed to me, I did everything I could to behave like a Liverpool captain should. But the biggest honours at Liverpool weren't personal ones, they were collective. All of us, all of you - together.
"Just know that I will always be a Red. Until the day I die. Thank you for everything. You'll never walk alone."
