<\/p>\nJust 976 fans turned up to watch Jordan Henderson\u2019s Al-Ettifaq side play in their Saudi Pro League fixture.<\/p>\n
The former Liverpool captain joined Al-Ettifaq this summer, ending his 12-year career with the Reds. He signed a deal worth \u00a3350,000 until 2026 to reunite with Liverpool legend Steven Gerrard, who currently manages the side. <\/p>\n
Henderson, 33, sparked controversy with the transfer and even claimed his decision was not financially motivated. But the Englishman\u2019s recent matches demonstrate barely a fraction of the passion and support he experienced at Anfield.<\/p>\n

Al-Ettifaq beat Al-Ta\u2019ee 4-3 on Thursday to record their fifth win of the season. Their previous game was a 3-1 win over Abha in front of a measly 976 spectators at Prince Sultan bin Abdulaziz Sports City Stadium.<\/p>\n
That number sent shockwaves through football Twitter as fans realised it was fewer than the turnout at National League games – and even some games lower in the English pyramid. The stadium was only 3.9% full despite the star quality on show with Henderson, Moussa Dembele and Demarai Gray all featuring.<\/p>\n

It comes as little shock, however, given that Al-Ettifaq's home attendance has been around 6,804 this season. Even that number is skewed thanks to the 13,930 who came to watch Cristiano Ronaldo when he visited with Al-Nassr.<\/p>\n
Henderson is yet to play in front of more fans in any of his five games in Saudi Arabia thus far. A close second was the away clash at Al-Hilal, which drew 13,656 supporters.<\/p>\n

Henderson\u2019s other two outings saw crowds of fewer than 5,000 spectators turn up, with 4,200 in the stands for a home clash with Al-Khaleej and 2,281 for the visit of Damac.<\/p>\n
It marks a huge difference to Anfield\u2019s season-high attendance of 50,109 this season. Liverpool\u2019s only other home fixture this term drew in 49,699.<\/p>\n
