Henderson not too far away from being Man Utd & England's No.1, says Sheffield United team-mate Fleck

Sheffield United's on-loan goalkeeper Dean Henderson has been backed by team-mate John Fleck to realise his dreams of becoming Manchester United and England's first-choice between the sticks.

Henderson has been in stellar form for the Blades yet again this season, having already impressed in the previous campaign as he helped Chris Wilder's side gain promotion to the Premier League.

The 23-year-old has kept 10 clean sheets in England's top tier since making the jump from the Championship and sees his side sit third in the charts for fewest goals conceded.

Wilder has previously tipped the shot-stopper to usurp Everton's Jordan Pickford as the Three Lions' main man, and Fleck has now thrown his hat into the ring regarding Henderson's career trajectory.
