Henderson has made just three appearances this season with David de Gea in possession of the number one gloves.
When asked by Football Insider if be expected Henderson to be granted permission to leave in January, Robinson said:
“Dean Henderson knew the situation when he went back to Manchester United in the summer. He knew it was possible that he would not play.
“I think his issue is that Ole has burnt his bridges with Romero. I think Romero will be pushing to leave first in January.
“I cannot see Manchester United allowing Romero and Henderson to leave in the new year. Henderson could be in a real predicament.”
