Nottingham Forest goalkeeper Dean Henderson will miss the rest of the season through injury, it has been claimed.
The Manchester United loanee had been recovering from a thigh injury and travelled to west London with the team for the game against Brentford on Saturday.
Henderson has not featured for Forest since the 2-0 win over Leicester on January 14, with winter signing Keylor Navas taking his place in recent months.

But according to the Telegraph, Henderson has now suffered a setback and will miss the final four games of the Premier League season - Southampton (home), Chelsea (away), Arsenal (home) and Crystal Palace (away).
Forest manager Steve Cooper had previously said he didn't know if Henderson would play again this season, but hoped the loan stopper would be able to return before the end of the campaign. It now appears certain that will not be the case.
The bad news comes after midfielder Danilo was forced off against Brentford, with the Brazilian awaiting scan results. They join Scott McKenna, Willy Boly, Omar Richards and Chris Wood on a long Forest injury list.
