I think Utd will have to make a big decision, if not this summer then certainly next. Henderson will be one of the best goalies in the world and wont stay on loan after next season. Will he be sold or De Gea? Thats the impossible decision Ole/next manager will have a nightmare with.
Henderson's contract with United runs through June 2022, with a year option that would run it through
June 2023.
DDG's contract with United runs through
June 2023, with a year option that would run it through June 2024.
As you can see, there is a year overlap, which was done by design. And Henderson has been at the club since he was 14 and there's been a specific development system for him and he's only spoken highly about United. It's his aim to be the undisputed #1 for United. The player and club know this and believe in this. And it seems that both Henderson (academy) and DDG (straight into the #1) arrived at the club in 2011. This is a youth academy player who will soon be #1 for England and United.
This was from June 2018 when he signed his first professional contract w/United:
“I'm really delighted,” he told
MUTV. “Coming off the back of last season and playing games at Shrewsbury and having a good season there, to return to the biggest club in the world and put pen-to-paper again is a great achievement for me and my family. It's another dream come true.
”Obviously, there was a lot of interest after last season, when I've done myself well going out and playing but, look, United are the biggest club in the world and have been my club since day one so, of course, they are always first in my mind.
“All my family are here with me now and it's an honour. To come from where we started from, from nothing, to come all this way is fantastic and I'm just really delighted.”
