Nottingham Forest
are closing in on a deal to sign Dean Henderson from Manchester United with talks
taking place between the Premier League clubs.
Forest manager
Steve Cooper is eager to sign the 25-year-old following recent uncertainty
around the future of current shot-stopper Brice Samba.
The England
international has been linked with a loan move to Forest with the option to buy
for £20m next summer, according to The Telegraph
Henderson has been
on the lookout for a new club as he only made three appearances for the Red
Devils in the cup competitions.
The England
international did not appear in any of Man United’s 38 Premier League games
last season.
If Forest make the
move permanent, Henderson will be the third player that Man United have made a
profit on over the last decade, after selling Daniel James and Daley Blind for
a profit.
Forrest are aimming
to add to their squad this summer transfer window ahead of their first season
back in the top flight since 1999.
Cooper also wants
to bring Man United midfielder James Garner back to the club next season,
whether that’s on loan or on a permanent basis.
Forrest are keen to
sign Djed Spence and Keinan Davis following successful loan spells at the City
Ground last season. Morgan Gibbs-White, who spent last season on loan at
Sheffield United, is said to be on their radar.
Forest’s 1-0
Championship play-off final win over Huddersfield Town confirmed their return
to the Premier League after a 23-year absence.
