Report: PL rival ready to listen to offers for player wanted by Leeds and Everton
Manchester United are facing a curious dilemma regarding their goalkeeping situation. David de Gea remains the club’s first choice. But, Dean Henderson, who has recently signed a new contract, has out-performed him whilst on loan at Sheffield United. Henderson is looking to play regularly, and won’t accept a place on the bench.
