Steven Gerrard suffers fresh Saudi blow as star follows in Jordan Henderson's footsteps Steven Gerrard is facing fresh problems at Al-Ettifaq, with star midfielder Seko Fofana set to leave the club in January.
Fofana's exit will be a bitter blow for Gerrard, with the Ivory Coast international having started all but two of Ettifaq's league games this season.
Having lost captain Jordan Henderson in last season's January window, Fofana looks set to follow in the Englishman's footsteps.
Gerrard has endured a difficult spell in charge of the Saudi Pro League outfit, despite spending heavily to assemble a star-studded squad.
They also recently went on a nine-game winless run in the league, which led to the sackings of assistant boss Dean Holden and sporting director Mark Allen.
