De Gea moves ahead of Henderson with latest Man Utd call

Dean Henderson's future at Manchester United is in doubt after being dropped for last night's 1-1 draw with Fulham.

The 24-year-old had started nine of the last 10 Premier League games prior Tuesday evening's match, but boss Ole Gunnar Solskjaer chose to reinstate David de Gea.

De Gea, 30, is also likely to get the nod for next week's Europa League final against Villarreal, adding to the doubts over Henderson's future, claims Sky Sports.

Henderson only wants to stay at Old Trafford next season if he is Solskjaer's No 1, which has been thrown into doubt by the Norwegian's latest decision.

The claims come less than a week after Henderson's performance was scrutinised in the home defeat by Liverpool, after he spilled a Trent Alexander-Arnold shot into the path of eventual goalscorer Roberto Firmino.
