Dean Henderson will get his chance to shine for Man United this month. 

The goalkeeper has struggled to unseat David de Gea as the Red Devils no.1 stopper, and previous reports said that Henderson is frustrated at being left on the subs bench. 

But now, he is expected to feature more regularly as reports say that de Gea will be out of action until after the international break. 

According to UK media, De Gea has returned to Spain to be with his partner ahead of the birth of their first child.

Meanwhile, Manchester United's board is happy with boss Ole Gunnar Solsksjaer, and the progress the team has made under his reign 

Executive vice-chairman Ed Woodward says results this season have made them optimistic about the Red Devils future. 

United endured a poor start to the season, leading to reports that Solskjaer's job was under threat. 

However, they have since bounced back and currently lie in 2nd place in the EPL table, while they also progressed to the FA Cup quarterfinals and the Europa League's last-16.
