ICYMI: Dean Henderson signs new Crystal Palace deal

Crystal Palace captain Dean Henderson has signed a new long-term contract until the summer of 2030, writes Sam Tabuteau.

The England international will become the highest-paid player at the club, underlining his importance to Palace after taking over the captaincy from Marc Guehi in January.

Under Henderson’s leadership, Palace recovered from a mid-season slump to lift the Conference League with a 1-0 victory over Rayo Vallecano in May.

The 29-year-old has been a crucial player in an unprecedented era of success for Palace, famously saving Omar Marmoush’s penalty as the Eagles beat Manchester City to win the FA Cup.

Henderson is currently sidelined until after the international break with an ankle injury suffered in pre-season and is likely to pull out of selection when Thomas Tuchel names his Nations League squad.

Could Arsenal or Chelsea sign JJ Gabriel?

JJ Gabriel is pushing to leave Manchester United after a bombshell update on the future of one of football’s brightest young talents.

The news first broke on Tuesday that Gabriel wanted to exit Old Trafford and is seeking his registration with the club to be cancelled with immediate effect.

Such a shock demand came before the player was expected to potentially make his senior competitive debut for Man Utd aged just 15 in the Carabao Cup third-round tie against Brighton on Wednesday night.

Attention has now quickly turned to which club Gabriel could join next, with the race on to secure the services of arguably the most exciting teenager in the English game who has long since been a viral sensation dubbed as ‘Kid Messi’.

Standard Sport understands that he does not have a preferred destination lined up yet, though most clubs in Europe would surely happily welcome him with open arms.

Rio Ngumoha contract latest after shock Arsenal 'interest'

Liverpool will hope to finalise Rio Ngumoha’s contract extension amid new suggestions of shock transfer interest from a number of clubs including Arsenal.

Ngumoha is widely regarded as one of the most talented young players in English football, having made quick progress since arriving at Anfield in September 2024 after rejecting multiple contract offers to remain at Chelsea, who a tribunal later ruled were owed at least £2.8million with potential add-ons rising to £4m.

He initially joined Liverpool’s academy setup, but impressed so much that he swiftly made his first-team debut for the club under former boss Arne Slot in the FA Cup in January 2025 aged just 16 years and 135 days, their second-youngest senior debutant of all time.

Ngumoha made a full first-team breakthrough last season and has become a key part of the club’s attack, scoring twice and registering one assist in 35 appearances across all competitions to date.
