Rangnick told the media Henderson was struck down with illness.

“On Monday, was told Dean Henderson stormed out of the training ground after being told he wasn’t playing on Sunday,” Tony O’Neill said on his channel.

“We never said anything, I wanted to make sure from another source – got that.

“He was told he’s not playing but he was preparing all week. I can understand Henderson being annoyed – he’s second string and not getting a chance.

“Him storming out, preparing to play and then being told you’re not playing, is understandable. [He’s] a young lad and wants to play.

“The excuse from Rangnick himself for him not even being on the bench was that he was ill but there was no description of what illness.

“Checked my source, I’m happy with it.”

After the Villa win, Rangnick confirmed Henderson had put in a transfer request but it was swiftly rejected.

“A couple of weeks ago he asked me but I told him I’d rather have him stay until the end of the season,” Rangnick told talkSPORT.

“We are very happy with our goalkeepers but if it’s up to me I wouldn’t want him to leave.”

Having been recalled from his loan at Sheffield United, Henderson made 13 Premier League appearances last term and looked like he was on his way to displacing De Gea.

However, he’s been unhappy with his lack of game-time this term, making just two starts in the Carabao Cup and Champions League.
