# Contract talks stall with Man United man concerned over role under Mourinho

**The Manchester United fans who frequent the Transfer Tavern in their droves are fully expecting a rather busy summer under Jose Mourinho indeed.**

With the resident Red Devils eager to see the side compete for the Premier League title at long last, links with the likes of [Alvaro Morata](https://www.telegraph.co.uk/football/2017/06/09/alvaro-morata-agrees-manchester-united-transfer-now-waits-fee/) and [Andrea Belotti](https://twitter.com/tancredipalmeri/status/873871881161637888) have gone down a storm in recent weeks.

Still, it’s not all about incomings this summer. Indeed, reports from the [Daily Mirror](https://www.mirror.co.uk/sport/football/transfer-news/manchester-united-starlet-dean-hendersons-10608677) have suggested a player could be heading for an Old Trafford exit.

According to their [report](https://www.mirror.co.uk/sport/football/transfer-news/manchester-united-starlet-dean-hendersons-10608677), young United stopper Dean Henderson has seen his contract talks stall at the Theatre of Dreams amid concerns over his first-team football.

With David De Gea and Sergio Romero ahead of him in the pecking order, the England U20 man will surely face a battle to truly impose himself on first-team proceedings.

The likes of Everton and West Bromwich Albion are [reportedly](https://www.mirror.co.uk/sport/football/transfer-news/manchester-united-starlet-dean-hendersons-10608677) keen on signing the 20-year-old should he opt to leave the Manchester giants as a result of his stalled talks.

While United have a proud history in giving their academy graduates a chance in the first-team, our resident Red Devils would understand his decision should he want to leave.

**Thoughts?**
