Liverpool captain Jordan Henderson confirms exit in Farewell video to fans
The 33-year-old midfielder looks set to move to the Saudi Pro League in a deal worth £12m plus add-ons.
Posting on his Instagram account, Henderson said: "Just know, I will always be a Red, until the day I die."
Henderson captained Liverpool to their first Premier League title in 30 years in 2020.
The England international also lifted the Champions League, FA Cup, two League Cups, Uefa Super Cup and Fifa Club World Cup during his time on Merseyside.
Henderson will link up again with ex-Liverpool captain and former team-mate Steven Gerrard, who is manager of Al-Ettifaq.
He joined the Reds from Sunderland in a deal worth £20m in June 2011 and made 492 appearances for the club, scoring 33 goals and registering 57 assists.
Speaking in the video filmed at Anfield, Henderson said: "I'm not sure I have any words to sum up how I'm feeling right now.
"I'm in the dressing room for the last time so as you can imagine, it's very emotional."
Henderson said that it was hard to leave his boyhood club Sunderland more than a decade ago but "when Liverpool come knocking, you don't say no".
He added: "I can't lie, there have been hard times, really hard times. But when I look back at my career at Liverpool, it will always be the good times that I remember.
