Dean Henderson has won only two England caps but is convinced he will become the Three Lions No.1.

But first the Crystal Palace goalkeeper will have his big hands full trying to win the FA Cup and become a club legend.

And like other stars for the 12th-placed team in the Premier League, the former Manchester United trainee insists he has “points to prove” on the Wembley stage against Manchester City.

Henderson, 28, personifies the confidence coursing through a club where there is the believe that reaching the club’s third FA Cup final is not enough.

“Marc (Guehi) said to us after Fulham (the quarter-final) that the goal wasn’t just to reach Wembley, it was to win the FA Cup,” he said.

It will be against a great team, it will be difficult but we are going in with nothing to lose, the pressure will be on them guys.”

This is a Palace squad which includes fellow England 2024 stars Guehi, Adam Wharton and Eberechi Eze and Olympic silver medallist Jean-Philippe Mateta who all came close to glory last summer.

“Absolutely yes,” he stated.

He joined Manchester United aged 14 but slammed the club after claiming he was promised he would replace David de Gea for the 2021-22 season.

Henderson joined Palace on a permanent deal in 2023.

He contested the starting spot with Sam Johnstone before his fellow England keeper moved to Wolves and he finally got the No.1 shirt.

It’s just step by step, and it's been a long journey to achieve that, but when I achieve it, I'll enjoy it a lot.”

Henderson even admits his disappointment that Palace did not compete for Europe through the Premier League after a slow start to the season.

“But if someone had offered us this after 10 games, and you are 90 minutes away from European football and creating history for the football club,” he said.
