Dean Bradley Henderson (born 12 March 1997) is an English professional footballer who plays as a goalkeeper for Premier League club Crystal Palace, whom he captains, and the England national team.
Henderson joined Manchester United's youth system in 2011 from Carlisle United. Between 2015 and 2020, he was loaned out to a number of teams across divisions, before making his Premier League debut with Sheffield United in 2019. After returning to Manchester United's first team and making his debut in 2020, he spent two seasons making sporadic appearances as a back-up. After a season on loan at Nottingham Forest, he was signed permanently by Crystal Palace in 2023, where he won the FA Cup and Community Shield in 2025 and was appointed club captain in 2026.
Henderson has represented England at under-16, under-17, under-20, under-21 and senior levels. He was a member of the England under-20 squad that won the 2017 FIFA U-20 World Cup, and the senior team that were runners-up at UEFA Euro 2020 and UEFA Euro 2024.
