Speaking to the club’s website, Henderson said:”The pathway that I have been on for the past five years has been fantastic for my development and the invaluable loan period at Sheffield United has been part of that.”
“The goalkeeping department at United is excellent; there are three top-level goalkeepers who have achieved so much in the game and I look forward to working with the group.”
“I’ll be giving everything to improve every day so that I can play as many games as possible for this great club.”
“Now I am looking forward to joining up with the England squad and then preparing for the season ahead.”
