Sheffield United goalkeeper Dean Henderson has been named on a six-man list of nominees for the Player of the Month for October.

Dean Henderson is a key player for newly promoted Premier League side and he’s on loan from Manchester United for this season.

The 22-year-old spent last season on loan with the Blades and he was a key component of their promotion-winning team from the English Championship last term.

Sheffield United picked one of the two automatic slots for Premier League promotion after finishing in second place behind Norwich City.

Dean Henderson has kept three clean sheets in the last five Premier League games.

The Manchester United loanee has kept two clean sheets in the three league games in the month of October.

Dean Henderson has been able to propel Sheffield United to the top half of the Premier League.

He would contest the award with the likes of Willian (Chelsea), Jamie Vardy and Youri Tielemans (Leicester City), Jack Grealish (Aston Villa) and Ilkay Gundogan (Manchester City).

Dean Henderson would be targeting another clean sheet when Sheffield United play hosts to Burnley in a Week 11 game in the Premier League and a first league game in the month of November.
