Henderson to Ajax free transfer?

Money to burn the Saudis.
Is this right - buy an ageing player for £16m then player says 'i'm not happy' so you let him go to Ajax for nowt??

They haven't paid him any salary apparently so it's possibly cheaper to let him leave for free than keeping him until he can pick up his deferred pay.

Guess it makes a tiny bit of sense.
Still nothing like 'real world' business though.
