Manchester United seems to close the signing of a new goalkeeper after Royal Antwerp had omitted Senne Lammens for their Belgian Pro League collision with Mechelen
Transfer -target of Manchester United Senne Lammens has been omitted from the team for the collision of Royal Antwerp with Mechelen while he comes closer to the Red Devils. Ruben Amorim would like to sign a new keeper, where Lammens is set up to offer competition to Andre Onana.
Onana has been under fire since he came to United from Inter Milan in 2023 after making various controversial mistakes, but there is a lack of real competition for his place as number 1. Onana did not make the team for the 1-0 defeat of United in Arsenal last weekend and backup goalkeeper Altay Bayindir was the fault for the winner of the winner of the winner of the winner of the winner of the winner of the winner of the winner of the winner of the winner of the winner of the winner of the winner of the winner of the winner of the winner of the winner of the winner of the winner of the winner of the winner of the winner of the winner of the winner of the winner of the winner of the winner of the winner of the winner of the Winner of the Winner of the Winner of the Winner of the Winner of the Winner of the Winner of the Winner of the Winner of the Winner of the Winner of the Winner of the Winner of the Winner of Riciori's Winner.
As a result, United Lammens wants to sign for £ 17.3 million and a deal seems to be very close after Antwerp did not select him against Mechelen. Instead, Yannick Thoelen got his first start of the season, while the new signing Taishi Brandon Nozawa made the bank.
Although Lammens will leave Amorim's expected arrival with four options between the sticks, he has insisted that a new signing does not mean that Onana or Bayindir will leave. “It is no idea that” these players will leave and then we will receive another player, “he said.
“We don't know what's going to happen, but we don't wait to take someone out to take another player with you [in]. One is not responsible for the other.
“The players you are talking about are not players who are currently training with the group. We have a group training, so it will not influence much.”
United has already strengthened their team with the signing sessions of Benjamin Sesko, Bryan Mbeumo, Matheus Cunha and Diego Leon so far this summer and Amorim believes that the Red Devils are much better than last season.
When asked if his team is more difficult, Amorim replied: “Yes, I think you can see that that is a fact. Because you can see with the data. Then, with confidence, you sometimes respond a little earlier and you are near the ball.
“Again, against Arsenal we were sometimes building up, but we had to kick the ball, and you could do the reaction of the players in the second balls – the duels – we are stronger, we are our positions recover faster.
“I remember at least twice in the corner, once with [Martin] Odegaard runs with the ball, and you could look at our players and we sprint at full power. Even Casemiro is at a different pace. So all these things, I can watch the games since the start of the season and we are consistent in that, so that is important. “
