Altay Bayindir Starts Derby as Man Utd Take Patient Approach with Senne Lammens
Manchester United aims to replace unreliable goalkeepers by signing Senne Lammens from Royal Antwerp for around £17 million before the transfer window closes.
- Manchester United are closing in on signing Royal Antwerp goalkeeper Senne Lammens, 23, who is travelling to Manchester to finalise the move and undergo a medical.
- With goalkeeping options unreliable, Manchester United have prioritised a new keeper after costly errors from Andre Onana and Altay Bayindir amid a �200m summer 2025 transfer window rebuild.
- Statistically, Senne Lammens stood out because he prevented 13 more goals than expected, saved four of six penalties, and kept seven clean sheets in 30 appearances for Royal Antwerp.
- If the deal completes, United will have four senior keepers and Lammens will compete for the starting spot when Andre Onana departs for AFCON in December, ending pursuit of Emiliano Martinez.
- Reports say Galatasaray tried to hijack the move with an 11th-hour bid on Saturday night, while Fabrizio Romano reports United opened talks valued at around €20m and are close to finalising personal terms.
