Transfer news: Dean Henderson close to new Manchester United deal and Sheffield United loan return

Dean Henderson is close to agreeing a new long-term deal at Manchester United - and also sealing a loan return to Sheffield United.

Discussions over an improved contract to tie down highly-rated goalkeeper are well underway and have been positive. His current United deal has just one year left to run.

Part of the negotiations about a new deal have centred on Henderson being allowed to go out on loan once more, this time to a Premier League club, to continue his upward curve. United view 22 year-old Henderson as a future Old Trafford No 1.
