However, amongst the Arsenal vs Sheffield United highlights was not the Man United loanee's saves, but his incredible dropkick that put his Arsenal counterpart Emiliano Martinez in a tricky position. Around the 55th minute of the FA Cup quarter-final against Arsenal, Dean Henderson launched a powerful goal kick, which dropped straight into the opposition's penalty box, before bouncing over Emiliano Martinez and the Arsenal goal. Dean Henderson's kick caught the Gunners off-guard, and Emiliano Martinez thanked his stars for not letting that go in.

Dean Henderson transfer: Chelsea linked with a move for Man United loanee

Dean Henderson's form for Sheffield United and the uncertainty over a starting spot at Man United have seen Henderson being linked with a move to Chelsea. Henderson's loan expires in the summer and the Blues are reportedly looking at a Dean Henderson transfer with Frank Lampard growing increasingly frustrated with record-signing Kepa Arrizabalaga this season. Chelsea have already gone on a spending spree, signing Hakim Ziyech and Timo Werner and are reportedly ready to part with £50 million for Henderson according to The Sun. While Sheffield United ruled out the possibility of signing Henderson permanently, Chris Wilder would like to get the shot-stopper on another short-term deal. Another season-long loan looks likely, but Chelsea's interest is likely to result in another long-drawn-out transfer saga.
