Nottingham Forest are in talks to sign goalkeeper Dean Henderson this summer as they look to secure the services of a vital player from last season on a permanent deal.
The shot-stopper impressed during his loan spell at the City Ground last season having made important saves for the Reds earlier in the campaign before picking up a season-ending injury in January. One-nil wins over West Ham and Liverpool are just a few notable examples of games in 2022/23 which would have been a different story without Henderson between the sticks.
Keylor Navas also often performed heroics in goal when he arrived on loan from Paris-Saint Germain after Henderson's injury. The Costa Rican's contribution to securing Forest's Premier League status for another season should not be forgotten, but signing the three-time Champions League winner on a permanent deal was always going to be less realistic.
