Wycombe Wanderers have completed their eight signing of the summer transfer window by signing Ewan Henderson from Belgium team Beerschot
Henderson is a former Scottish youth international that originally developed through the Celtic youth academy before eventually breaking through into the senior team. He experienced a few loan spells with the likes of Ross County and Dunfermline Athletic before transferring to Hibernian. Here he spent 18 months before earning a loan move to Belgium outfit Oostende.
After a season, he extended his stay in Belgium with Beerschot where he was managed by ex Liverpool striker Dirk Kuyt. But Beerschot struggled for survival in the Belgium First Division A and were subsequently relegated to the First Division B league. Despite this, Henderson was one of the few standout players during the season and became a fans favourite.
And this was reflected by Tom Stockwell on the clubs website when the announcement was made. Stockwell reflected “Ewan is an exciting and well-rounded box-to-box midfielder who can score and assist as well as break up the play and build from deep. He is exactly the profile we wanted to add with his technical skills and tactical flexibility.
“At just 25, Ewan already has experience in the top divisions in Scotland and Belgium, and we feel again it’s a strong statement of the direction we are going to be able to attract such a player to the club.”
