"nominal fee"

And, although McGhee will have to wait until the transfer window reopens, the indications are that Villa will settle for a nominal fee if the financially-strapped Seagulls can find some funds for the young Dubliner.

"There might be some sort of deal that can be done there in the January window," said O'Leary. "But at the moment that's down to Brighton.

"We don't want to stand in the lad's way and we hope we can get something sorted out. "

"The lad would like to go there because he was happy there and gave some good performances."

Aston Villa manager David O'Leary will not stand in the way of goalkeeper Wayne Henderson joining Brighton in the New Year if the relegation-haunted Championship side can come up with the right sort of price.

Brighton boss Mark McGhee has made no secret of his desire to take Henderson back to the Withdean Stadium in January following a successful three-month loan deal on the South Coast which expired three weeks ago.

And, although McGhee will have to wait until the transfer window reopens, the indications are that Villa will settle for a nominal fee if the financially-strapped Seagulls can find some funds for the young Dubliner.

"There might be some sort of deal that can be done there in the January window," said O'Leary. "But at the moment that's down to Brighton.

"We don't want to stand in the lad's way and we hope we can get something sorted out.

"The lad would like to go there because he was happy there and gave some good performances."


Henderson - an FA Youth Cup winner alongside Luke Moore, Liam Ridgewell and Steven Davis three years ago - found his chances further limited by the summer arrival of Stuart Taylor.


And, even then, he still has Stefan Postma - currently out on loan impressing at Wolves - ahead of him in the pecking order.

Number 1 keeper in Ireeeeeeeeeeeeeland:

You've never seen him play, how do you know you love him?
You scare me.

 

[CHAPPERS]

Give him all we can.

Henderson is the best keeper I've seen at this club.

Yes yes, even better than Kuipers and Roberts.

Marvellous news if this story has credibility. Just hope another club don't try and step in. That has cheered me up immensely!!!

We should do everything to get him.

Well its a direct quote from O'Leary, so I guess yes. Encouraged that Henderson WANTS the move.

Hope this doesn't affect Blaney's confidence if he feels he hasn't a future here...

I'm inclined to agree. If he can sort out the little problem he has of pushing the ball out rather then wide he'll be top class.

 

[empire]

can we all donate again,i would gladly dig deep to assure we get him

 

[Redhead]

Hendo is the best keeper we've had in a long time, we need to pull out various stops to get him here permenantly!!!

 

[Gully]

I am going to Villa Park to watch them play Arsenal on New Years Eve (yes I know I should really be watching the Albion play Millwall but I was pursuaded to go by some friends who support Villa), perhaps I could hand out flyers to their fans asking them to plead with the club to let Henderson join us permanently. Ironically one of our group is on Villas' books as a youth team goalkeeper, haven't met him yet but apparently he is reasonably good, and huge, perhaps I could kidnap him and bring him to the Albion as revenge for them getting Barry all those years ago.

 

[BUTTERBALL]

Thanks Blayney but can't wait for Henderson to come back and Kuipers to get fully fit. 2 decent keepers!!

Great news if it comes off.
