NOTTINGHAM FOREST are interested in signing Manchester United star Dean Henderson on a permanent deal, according to reports.
The goalkeeper joined Forest last summer in a loan deal until the end of the season.
And now the club want to tie him down for the future after securing their Premier League spot for next season with a 1-0 win over Arsenal.
According to Manchester Evening News, Forest are prepared to spend £30million on the shot-stopper.
And it is believed Henderson would be open to the move as he would have a regular spot in the team ahead of Euro 2024.
He has even remained at Forest and watched the Arsenal win despite not playing a game since January after suffering a thigh strain.

Henderson, 26, underwent surgery on the injury this month but is still expected to be out for four months.
But that has not deterred Forest who have paid his £110,000-a-week salary in full this year.
Henderson had previously hit out at how he was treated by ex-manager Ole Gunnar Solskjaer upon joining Forest after being forced to play second fiddle to David de Gea.
Erik ten Hag spoke to the stopper in January over a potential return to Old Trafford from Forest after Martin Dubravka’s loan at United ended and he headed back to Newcastle.

However, Henderson informed him that he had no desire to play back-up to De Gea after being restricted to just three appearances last term.
He could decide to move this summer and many United fans believe the club should accept an offer of £30million.
One wrote: “£30m!! Take it and run!”
Another added: “£30m? Why’s it not agreed already?”
A third said: “Think this is a good move all round, he won’t be number one at United next season whether we sign a keeper or not and the money is solid.”
And another commented: “No brainer! Sell him and use the money to get David Raya!”
