A report claims that Dean Henderson's loan spell with Sheffield United may be brought to a premature end by parent club Manchester United.

Manchester United will reportedly consider denying Dean Henderson the chance to extend his loan contract with Sheffield United under new proposals put forward by the Premier League.

The 23-year-old has impressed during his campaign on loan with the Blades, keeping 10 clean sheets in 27 league appearances.

Henderson's form has helped Sheffield into seventh place, just two points behind his parent club with a game in hand to play.

According to The Sun, top-flight clubs will have to decide whether to extend loan deals beyond June 30, with the Premier League season set to continue well beyond that date as a result of the coronavirus pandemic.

The report indicates that Man Utd face a dilemma over whether to give Henderson the chance to see out the season at Bramall Lane, given that the sides are locked in a battle for a Champions League spot.

As a result of Manchester City's impending European ban, fifth place is expected to be enough for a spot in UEFA's showpiece competition.
