Not even £0.5m per kg?
YEP whenever i think of Hendo i remember that
Hard to believe as he's barely played, but this was the valuation when he came back from Sheffield
He got his shot and didn't look good enough in that role. He's a very average GK, who we should be cashing out on when his stock is still somewhat up.
Newcastle will pay a premium for English players because they don’t have many and if they get into Europe they need them.
His valuation was a lot higher. I believe Mitten said we rejected a £50m bid from Chelsea for him in summer of 2020 as Ole preferred to keep him.
Didn’t know that was a thing.
Team like City & ourselves hardly have that many either.
Home grown rules. It’s the reason City have players like Carson in the squad.
We’ve got loads of English/HG players so not usually an issue for us.
Ahh sorry I thought I would have to get into another argument with someone who didn’t know fletchers job again
I think it's a great deal, but I do think maybe next summer we need to buy a replacement for Henderson, ie someone that can push DDG for the number 1 spot.
Really?
What has he done to earn a price tag above £20 million?

We got a lot of them... They should take Maguire
They have like 18 homegrown players, they don’t remotely need them.
They’re going to need good English players. A lot of them they currently have will be moved on. Henderson is good enough to be their starting GK.
Why would we get rid of the goalkeeper that probably suits Ten Hag better than De Gea? Let Ten Hag assess Henderson and De Gea before doing anything hasty here.
Would rather DDG left.
Utd could do with a keeper that is good at more than one thing. That may or may not be Henderson, but he should be given a proper shot at it. DDG has proved time and time again it ain't him.

Because Henderson isn't good enough anyway and if they truly offer 40m then we need to jump at it rather than keep 2 goalkeepers on 500k wages where neither are good enough.
Hahahahaha no mate, I was trying to be witty and failing! We all know fletchers job is coaching, scouting, arranging transfers, designing the weekly canteen menus…..
Will pack his bags for him for that price
Henderson has made it quite obvious that he wants to be a starter. Ideally with us, but if it's not then he wants to leave. It's why he's probably the one player I have no doubt we could easily sell despite his wages, as I expect he'd happily take a reduced contract at a club where he can start games.
He isn't an upgrade on DDG but yeah don't get the hate. He's a decent number 2...just maybe not at that salary.I quite like him and don’t understand the glee that his potential departure has elicited on here. He seems much more of a team player than DDG.
That salary is completely bonkers though. Thanks Ed and Matt
We don’t want him. Please take him, and his exorbitant wages.
Sold!!!
I cant speak for anyone else, but for me, the rumours suggesting he was one of the leakers and stropping off home when he wasnt picked vs Villa in the cup, thats enough for me to want him gone, even if thats not the case, £40 million for a #2 keeper when we have such a massive rebuild on our hands is just good business.
I think he’s a good goalkeeper and has his strengths but like many others here, what are we waiting for?!
He is young, English and it's Newcastle. 60m or no deal!
The choice will be either sell DDG or Dean. We shouldn't be afraid of losing one of them even if it means selling the academy players like Dean for 40m. We need to think smart here that 40m can still give you good goalkeeper in the market. So if the manager thinks DDG doesn't suit to his system and we need to move him on in 2023 or 2024, then we can always use that 40m we got from Dean to buy new keeper.
I'd take £10m and getting his wages off the books. Bang average goalkeeper that has never shown any signs of being anything else (yes, even at Sheffield Utd).
If E.T.H doesn't want him. Make it a straight sale. Too good the bench
Sell ASAP.
Yeah I know he's been tarred as a leaker, but no idea how true or not that is, so reserve judgement. Agree on the crazy money and if that can fund a solid DM (somehow) it would be good business.
Yep agreed, if it turns out he isn't I'd have no issue with him staying, but if the cash will be spent on a midfielder.........
We seem to want to pay players double what they are actually worth.I still can't believe you gave him that insane contract.
Sounds like a great deal for all parties.
Henderson needs to move on, he won't be number 1 at United. 40 million is nothing to Newcastle and is a lot more than United tend to get for players that aren't key players looking to leave while under contract.

Our wage policy for years has been "pay players what we hope in our wildest dreams they might be worth one day" rather than what they're actually worth. One point in the long list of shit that Arnold and co need to change.

Sell him ASAP. Alright player. Not Man United #1 quality. Good for a #2. Get the wages off the system, grab the money and feck it into a DM.
would be quite happy with De Gea, Johnstone and Heaton.
