Ruben Amorim Approves Third Summer Signing For Man Utd
Manchester United Eye “Dream” Move for Royal Antwerp Star Senne Lammens
Manchester United are reportedly stepping up their pursuit of Royal Antwerp’s highly-rated goalkeeper, Senne Lammens, with sources close to the player indicating a “dream” move to Old Trafford would be a welcome prospect for the 23-year-old Belgian.
Interest in Lammens from the Old Trafford hierarchy is understood to be serious, with the club having already made enquiries to ascertain the conditions of a potential deal. Crucially, personal terms are not expected to be an issue, suggesting a smooth transition for the player should an agreement between the clubs be reached.
The interest in Lammens is a clear indicator of Manchester United’s intent to bolster their goalkeeping options under manager Ruben Amorim, who has reportedly approved the potential acquisition.
Lammens has been a standout performer for Royal Antwerp, with impressive statistics that have clearly caught the eye of top clubs. In the 2024/2025 season, he played in the vast majority of their First Division A games, making 39 appearances and recording 10 clean sheets.
His save percentage is noted at 77.0%, with a commendable 15.58 goals prevented. While his distribution with his feet is noted as nothing special, his shot-stopping and cross-claiming numbers are considered very strong, making him an attractive prospect for a Premier League side.
The reported transfer fee for Lammens stands at around €20 million, a figure that is considered manageable for a club of Manchester United’s stature, especially if he is viewed as a long-term solution or a strong competitor for the starting spot.
It’s understood that Lammens is keen on a move to a bigger league, aligning perfectly with Manchester United’s ambitions.
While Lammens is high on United’s wishlist, reports also suggest that Emiliano MartÃnez of Aston Villa remains an option, albeit a more expensive one.
