Crystal Palace star pens new deal following summer interest from other clubs

Crystal Palace captain Dean Henderson has signed a new contract that will keep him at the club until 2030.

The goalkeeper has become a key figure at Selhurst Park since joining from Manchester United in August 2023, making 119 appearances and keeping 38 clean sheets.

Henderson has also played a major role in one of the most successful periods in Palace’s history, helping the club win the FA Cup, Community Shield and UEFA Conference League.

The shot-stopper had been the subject of interest from Nottingham Forest this summer, with his former Palace boss Oliver Glasner keen to bring him in.

But he has now committed his future to the south London side.

Palace chairman Steve Parish said: “As well as being an outstanding goalkeeper, Dean is our captain and leader and I’m absolutely delighted that he has extended his contract at Crystal Palace.

“Here’s to even more successful years ahead.”

Henderson, who has also won five senior England caps, added: “I’m delighted. It’s been an amazing three years – and I’m just so happy to extend my contract.

“My best years are in front of me and I’m happy to be giving that to Crystal Palace.”
