Manchester United to allow Sheffield United to keep goalkeeper Dean Henderson on loan until the end of the season... despite the two teams fighting for a European spot

Manchester United are set to allow Sheffield United to keep loanee goalkeeper Dean Henderson until the end of the season, according to The Telegraph.

His loan contract was due to expire at the end of June, but with the Premier League campaign extended beyond that due to the coronavirus pandemic, Man United had to make a decision whether to recall him.

Henderson has been on loan with the Blades since the start of the 2018-19 season, and has made 76 appearances, keeping 32 clean sheets.
