Manchester United injury update: David De Gea concern forces Louis van Gaal to recall on-loan goalkeeper
Manchester United's goalkeeper injury crisis has forced Louis van Gaal to recall Dean Henderson from his loan spell at Stockport County following David De Gea's knee injury.
De Gea was unable to take part in United's 2-1 Europa League defeat at FC Midtjylland on Thursday after injuring his knee in the warm-up, with Sergio Romero taking his place and impressing despite the loss.
United had no substitute keeper on the bench against the Danish champions with youngster Sam Johnstone also ruled out through injury, meaning Van Gaal has had to recall Henderson.
The 18-year-old has been on loan with Conference North side Stockport, and looks likely to be on the bench for United's FA Cup trip to Shrewsbury Town.
