At the end of the season, Manchester United goalkeeper Dean Henderson was sent on loan to Nottingham Forest and will return to United at the end of the loan period. Given that Dickia's contract has not been renewed, it seemed that Henderson had ushered in another spring in his career with the Red Devils. However, the Manchester Evening News has revealed that manager Jens Ten Hagar is not happy with Henderson's attitude and has almost decided not to reintroduce the former England international.
Henderson, 26, is a product of United's youth academy, returning from a 2020 loan spell at Sheffield United and was once seen as a potential successor to Dickie. Unfortunately, he was unwilling to wait on the bench, and after a loan spell at Forest last year, publicly slammed United for "wasting his valuable time" and said he had asked for a move before Ten Hagar took up his post, refusing to release him despite not wanting to let him see him train.
According to the Manchester Evening News, Ten Hag had a video conference with Henderson at the end of last year, which was the first time the two had spoken. At the time, Ten Hag asked Henderson if he wished to return to United by ending his loan early, but was firmly rejected by Henderson. Ten Hagar then turned to Bylant on loan as a replacement goalkeeper in the winter transfer window, and appeared to be extremely unhappy with Henderson's attitude.
