Gareth Southgate has no immediate plans to make a personal check on Jordan Henderson’s progress in Saudi Arabia ahead of next month’s internationals.<\/p>\n
Henderson played in Saturday’s 1-1 draw against Ukraine but was rested for Tuesday’s euphoric victory in Glasgow.<\/p>\n
His international place has been called into question in recent weeks following his move to Saudi Pro League side Al Ettifaq.<\/p>\n

It is likely however, that Southgate or his No 2 Steve Holland will make the shorter trip to Germany and Spain to watch Harry Kane and Jude Bellingham, respectively, live.<\/p>\n
