Chelsea eyeing move for Dean Henderson
There has been intense speculation surrounding the future of Dean Henderson in the last period.
It’s claimed by British media that Chelsea are eyeing move for Manchester United goalkeeper Dean Henderson.
The 23-year-old has been subject to interest from various Premier League clubs.
In July 2019, Dean Henderson was sent to Sheffield United on a season-long loan.
Since his arrival from Manchester United, Henderson has conceded 24 goals and provided 11 clean sheets in 30 games for Sheffield United.
The 23-year-old has been touted as one of the brightest young prospects in England.
Dean Henderson has represented England at Under-16, Under-17, Under-20 and Under-21 level, winning 23 caps.
Henderson will be high in demand this summer, with him having enjoyed a sublime season for Sheffield United this term.
Frank Lampard wants to sign a new goalkeeper and Henderson is one of the names at the top of his wishlist. He has always been a manager who keeps his eyes on the most talented young players across the globe.
Lampard will reportedly be handed a huge transfer kitty this summer and the Manchester United goalkeeper is thought to be among the manager’s priorities.
Chelsea are desperate to make an impact in the summer transfer window.
According to the report, “Chelsea are considering a £50m move for Manchester United goalkeeper Dean Henderson. The Englishman is line for a spot in Gareth Southgate’s Euro2020 after his performances on loan at Sheffield United this season. The Sun on Sunday says Chelsea want Henderson to replace Kepa Arrizabalaga this summer. But United are aware of the interest and are hoping a brand new contract will persuade Henderson to stay at the club. This would allow United to secure Henderson’s long-term future and possibly send him out on loan again next season, with the Blades keen for him to return.”
