Nottingham Forest could 'shelve' transfer plans after huge Steve Cooper boost

Nottingham Forest are 'likely' to end their search for a new goalkeeper before the end of the window after receiving good news on Dean Henderson's recovery from injury.

Henderson picked up a thigh problem in the 2-0 win over Leicester City earlier this month but according to the Independent, he could make his return on February 11 for the trip to Fulham. That means the England international will miss just one more league match, which is the home clash with Leeds United next weekend.

Forest boss Steve Cooper admitted last week that the club were toying with the idea of bringing in a new goalkeeper in Henderson's absence, with Paris Saint Germain's Keylor Navas heavily linked. Navas has been one of the best in the world in his position in recent years and would've represented a significant coup for Forest but, with Henderson not far off a return, a deal now looks unlikely.
