Hibs fans have longed for the midfielder to return to Easter Road ever since his season-long loan from Celtic expired after his two-assist performance in the 2016 Scottish Cup final win over Rangers.
Henderson was linked with a move to Neil Lennon’s side in the summer but it so far remains unclear whether his former boss at Parkhead will rekindle his interest in the January window.
Ostersunds finished fifth in the top flight this season and progressed to the latter stages of the Europa League, where they’ll meet English giants Arsenal.
Meanwhile, Standard Liege, Genk and Werder Bremen are said to be leading the chase for Celtic’s Eboue Kouassi. The midfielder is available for loan until the end of the season as Brendan Rodgers seeks to find him regular first-team football.
