Currently on loan at Nottingham Forest, England international shot-stopper Dean Henderson has no interest in staying at Manchester United when his loan comes to an end after this season. This is according to Manchester Evening News.

It’s unlikely that Harry Kane will leave London if he’s even allowed to leave Spurs by Daniel Levy. Despite this, Manchester United haven’t stepped down their interest in signing him.

However, according to Gazzetta, Manchester United scouts were sent out to Italy to watch Tammy Abraham in action for Roma. There are, of course, complications which would prevent this deal from going ahead.

Chelsea inserted a buyback clause into his contract, meaning that they have first dibs when it comes to signing the England international. Even if they choose not to sign him, then he won’t come cheap as Roma values him highly.
