Newcastle United are leading the race for Manchester United goalkeeper Dean Henderson, who is also on the radar of Antonio Conte’s Tottenham Hotspur, according to 90min.
90min are reporting this afternoon that Eddie Howe’s Newcastle are at the front of the queue for Manchester United goalkeeper Henderson.
The 25-year-old goalkeeper himself wants to leave Old Trafford, with David de Get the first choice between the posts for the Red Devils.
Newcastle will reportedly push forward with a bid for the England international – described as “incredible” by former Tottenham and Manchester United boss Jose Mourinho in The Daily Mail in June 2021 – once their Premier League status for next season is confirmed.
The Daily Mirror have reported that Tottenham are keen on signing Henderson as well.
Newcastle or Tottenham for Dean Henderson?
In our opinion, Newcastle could beat Tottenham to the signature of Henderson in the summer transfer window.
Hugo Lloris recently signed a new contract with Spurs, which suggests that head coach Conte thinks that the France international will stay as the number one for the time being.
Martin Dubravka is the number one goalkeeper at Newcastle, but the Magpies reportedly being ready to make a bid for Henderson shows how much they rate him.
Manchester United and Tottenham are top-four rivals now, so the Red Devils may not be keen to selling one of their players to Spurs and making them stronger.
