‘Agreement in Place ‘: Crystal Palace Now Close to Signing ‘Exceptional’ Player – Romano
Crystal Palace Move Confirmed for Dean Henderson
£20 Million Deal Agreed for Dean Henderson
Dean Henderson has been the subject of speculation surrounding a potential move away from Manchester United this summer and that speculation is reaching its conclusion. Fabrizio Romano has confirmed that the transfer has now reached its ‘Here We Go’ moment with a deal agreed for £20 million with add-ons to be confirmed.
Once the medical is completed, Henderson described as “exceptional” will bring to an end a frustrating period where he has never really been given the game chances he would have wanted, playing second fiddle to David de Gea.
Loan Moves for Henderson
Much of Henderson’s time at Old Trafford has been elsewhere on loan, with seven spells in total. Of those seven spells away from his parent club, he has played most recently for Nottingham Forest, where he made 20 appearances, while enjoying two spells at Sheffield United, but none of these have led to permanent moves.
Henderson was named as a substitute for the Premier League win over his former loan club, Nottingham Forest, on Saturday, August 26, at Old Trafford, which saw United win 3-2 after Forest had rushed into a shock 2-0 lead.
Time to Move for Henderson
Following the final whistle to that game, Henderson was in no rush to wait around as he was advised of the medical, and it now seems that Crystal Palace have finally got the player they desire. He will leave Old Trafford after making 29 appearances for the Red Devils.

Liverpool have shown an interest in signing Crystal Palace defensive midfielder Cheick Doucouré (23), according to a report from RMC Sport.
The 23-year-old Malian midfielder is touted as a possible replacement for Fabinho, who left Anfield for PIF-funded Saudi Arabian club Al-Ittihad. However, the outlet understands that Doucouré’s potential transfer to Jürgen Klopp’s side has not significantly advanced in the last few days. RMC Sport adds that Liverpool are yet to submit a concrete offer to acquire the services of the former Racing Club de Lens defensive midfielder, with a move said to be at a standstill.
Liverpool are overseeing a complete midfield overhaul during this summer transfer window. Fabinho, club captain Jordan Henderson, Naby Keïta, Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain and James Milner all left the Premier League side. The Reds brought in
defensive midfielder Wataru Endo from Stuttgart as well as Alexis Mac Allister and Dominik Szoboszlai respectively from Brighton and RB Leipzig. RMC Sport adds that Liverpool will look to bring a fourth midfield arrival and that Crystal Palace FC have slapped a price tag on Doucouré that falls above the €60m mark. Liverpool have only now five days to revive the deal for Doucouré before the end of the transfer window on Friday, September 1st.
