Newcastle United will offer Karl Darlow to Manchester United in a bid to secure the signing of Dean Henderson, according to reports.
The Manchester Evening News understands that the United goalkeeper is closing in on a move to the Magpies, with Henderson in Newcastle last Wednesday for talks. The MEN reported last week that discussions have been held over a season-long loan, though a permanent switch has yet to be ruled out.
Henderson has endured a frustrating season in which his playing opportunities have been severely limited due to the resurgent form of David de Gea, finishing the campaign with just three appearances to his name with none coming in the Premier League. The academy graduate had looked set to usurp De Gea as United's No.1 before the campaign began but a nasty bout of Covid ruled him out for the opening weeks of the season and opened the door for the Spaniard to re-establish his spot.
