Goal-shy attacker Ian Henderson has been training with Colchester United, as the U’s look to find a replacement for departed loanee Kevin Lisbie.
Henderson – who started his footballing career with the U’s rivals Norwich City – also joined Aidy Boothroyd’s side in making the long trip to Preston North End this afternoon. However, the 24-year-old could only warm-up with the rest of the squad at Deepdale – but a move for Henderson seems likely.
The news comes after the confirmed exit of forward Lisbie – back to parent club Ipswich Town – with any potential permenant move looking unlikely.
Henderson, who can operate up front or on the right wing, has returned to England following an unsuccessful short-term spell with Turkish side Ankaragucu.
So what do you think?
