Liverpool midfielder Adam Lallana has paid an emotional tribute to his “selfless” close friend, team-mate and captain Jordan Henderson.

Lallana, 32, is set to leave Anfield when his contract expires on 31 July.

“Being beside him lifting the Premier League trophy, nothing makes me happier,” a tearful Lallana said about fellow England midfielder Henderson.

Lallana has won the Premier League, Champions League and Club World Cup during six years with the Reds.

However, the former Southampton player’s spell has also been interrupted by a series of injuries, and it is 30-year-old Henderson – who Liverpool signed in 2011 – he credits for helping him get through tough moments.

“Having been with Jordan throughout the whole journey, I’ve been lucky enough to be alongside him when he had his dark moments – and he’s also been alongside me in my dark moments,” Lallana told the Liverpool club website.
