- Solskjaer has admitted the De Gea-Henderson dynamic is unsustainable for a second season and sources have reiterated Henderson, who is recovering from a hip injury, has been told he is starting next season as the number one.
- De Gea is an obvious fall-guy for United; he is the club's highest earner and not a first-team regular anymore.
I’d be surprised if we don’t already have an agreement in place for either Hendo or DDG. Would make no sense to sign Heaton
and give Grant a new contract unless we were certain we could sell, or worst case loan either Hendo or DDG. Guessing we’ll know before the month is over.
My thoughts:
DDG: Don’t really have any obvious clubs for him. RM, Barca, AM already have better gk, Other spanish clubs unable to give anything close to his salary. Italy maybe Inter, but Handanovic is/was captain. He would suit Mourinho style, but Roma seem to be signing Rui Patricio. PSG have all but confirmed Donnarumme.
Any sale would require us to give DDG a golden handshake imo.
Henderson: There are more and better options to use him as a part of a deal with other players we could be interested in. Most obvious choice would be Hendo+Lingard vs Rice, but i’m sure there are other options aswell.
