Sheffield United goalkeeper Dean Henderson is being tracked by Tottenham Hotspur as well as European giants Bayern Munich and Juventus, according to ESPN.

The England U21 international has been a revelation since he moved to Bramall Lane on loan from Manchester United in the summer, enhancing his reputation further after a superb 2017/18 spell at Shrewsbury Town.

Henderson, who is renowned for his cat-like reflexes, has helped Sheffield United up to third in the Championship table while only two teams in the league, Middlesbrough and Bristol City, have conceded fewer goals.

And, according to ESPN, Tottenham have been keeping tabs on his performances between the sticks for Chris Wilder’s Blades in recent months. Perhaps Henderson has been identified as a long-term successor for Hugo Lloris.

Bundesliga and Serie A champions Bayern Munich and Juventus are also understood to be interested.

The report adds that Manchester United have high hopes for Henderson but forcing his way into the first team is easier said than done with David de Gea expected to sign a new contract with the Old Trafford club in the near future.
