Manchester United has reportedly granted goalkeeper Dean Henderson the go-ahead to embark on a journey to Crystal Palace, where he is slated to undergo a medical examination as the transfer deadline approaches. The uncertainty surrounding Henderson’s future at Old Trafford has lingered, particularly since the acquisition of Andre Onana from Inter.
The imminent conclusion of the transfer window has spurred this development. The England international’s destination seems to be aligning with Roy Hodgson’s Eagles, who are actively seeking a competitor for fellow Three Lions teammate Sam Johnstone. This initiative comes in the wake of Vicente Guaita’s decision not to participate at Selhurst Park.
In a broader context, Henderson spent the previous season on loan at Nottingham Forest. While a potential return to the City Ground had been discussed, Nottingham Forest pivoted to sign USMNT international Matt Turner from Arsenal instead, paving the way for Henderson’s potential move to Crystal Palace.
