Henderson is understood to have been in Newcastle for talks this week and Manchester Evening News claim that a deal to bring the 25-year-old to St James's Park is now ‘99 per-cent done’.
Sources at Newcastle have quickly played down the report with the transfer window set to open on June 10.

Hide AdA season-long loan has reportedly been discussed though potential a permanent transfer is also a possibility as Eddie Howe looks to bolster his options in goal.
The Magpies reportedly tried to sign Henderson on loan on January deadline day but a move failed to materialise. MEN have stated that the reason for the collapsed move was due to Newcastle goalkeeper Martin Dubravka rejecting a swap deal to Manchester United.
Dubravka is Newcastle’s first choice goalkeeper but the potential arrival of Henderson would put the Slovakian’s position under serious threat heading into the 2022-23 season.
