Manchester United have completed the signing of Senne Lammens from Royal Antwerp for a package worth around 25 million euros. Lammens had so many suitors but picked Manchester United.
The 23-year-old Belgian goalkeeper sees Manchester United as a dream move despite other clubs like Aston Villa and Galatasaray offering bigger fees and wages. He turned down both clubs to sign for Manchester United.
However, Manchester United already has three first-team goalkeepers with Andre Onana, Altay Bayindir, and Tom Heaton still at the club. The question is that who will be Ruben Amorim’s first-choice goalkeeper going forward?
Andre Onana reported to Carrington for pre-season training with an injury, despite traveling with the squad to the USA tour, he failed to take part. However, Andre Onana recovered for the first game of the season against Arsenal, but was left out of the matchday squad by Amorim.
Ruben Amorim was asked about Andre Onana after the game, and he claimed that the goalkeeper was fully fit and it was his own choice to select the best team he thinks can win the game.
Andre Onana traveled to London with the squad to face Fulham in the second game of the season, but he was left on the bench. Altay Bayindir started again in a game that ended in a 1-1 draw. However, Andre Onana was given his first start of the season against Grimsby in the Carabao Cup, but failed to impress.
Altay Bayindir returned to goal in the next Premier League game against Burnley at Old Trafford, which shows Andre Onana may have lost his starting spot as the Manchester United number one goalkeeper.
Who will be Man United’s first-choice goalkeeper?
With the arrival of Senne Lammens, Altay Bayindir is still seen as the first-choice goalkeeper. The idea was for Lammens to come in and fight for his place, but he may be involved immediately if Bayindir and Onana continue with their errors in goal.
Altay Bayindir and Andre Onana have been given a chance this season, but have made a few errors. The two goalkeepers signed under Erik ten Hag also struggle with set-pieces. Coming out to claim a corner has been a problem, and it’s a skill Manchester United fans would hope Senne Lammens possesses.
Senne Lammens is just 23 years old, and he is seen as a present and future goalkeeper for the club. Manchester United opted for him instead of Emiliano Martinez, who agreed personal terms with the club on deadline day and was willing to join.
Senne Lammens girlfriend
According to research, Senne Lammens is currently dating Vanessa Herssens, and they have been together since his youth football days.
Vanessa Herssens will be proud to stick together with the new Manchester United goalkeeper through thick and thin, and also to witness this beautiful moment together.
