The young Old Trafford loanee has become a big hit with United’s supporters during his time on loan, which began at the start of United’s promotion season last term.

Henderson’s form has led to calls for Gareth Southgate to make him his No.1 goalkeeper at the European Championships this summer.

And former Blades boss Warnock, speaking on Talksport, said of Henderson: “He has almost been faultless.

“I know you can judge him on his saves but I’ve always judged goalkeepers on how many mistakes they make. I had Paddy Kenny for years and he hardly ever made a mistake.

“Henderson has been outstanding. I’m sure Chris has been coaching him and telling him that he will go to the top.

“I’m sure Sheffield United would snap him up tomorrow... Chris will sign him whatever he costs.”
