Newcastle had shown an interest in Henderson, however, it was their relegation rivals Watford that made a last-ditch attempt to secure his services.
It is believed that Ralf Rangnick was reluctant to see Henderson leave the club as he is needed as a deputy to David De Gea this campaign.

Hide AdOne of these players is Lille’s Sven Botman. Botman was the subject of numerous approaches from the Magpies in January and has admitted that he is excited by the project on Tyneside:
“Everyone says about Newcastle: ‘it's all about money’. But it's a very nice project, if you look at where Manchester City and Paris Saint-Germain started. I think it would be very nice to be part of that.”
A potential summer move for Benfica’s Darwin Nunez is also being touted with a total outlay of above £70m expected should they land the pair.
