Then it was done. Manchester United are going through the transfer window with a change in their goalkeeping team. Onana and Bayindir continue, but in comes 23-year-old Senne Lammens. The Royal Andwort goalkeeper is really proud, while United fans are excited to see if the Belgian goalkeeper is really the solution. English Goal reassures United supporters.
First to the new Man United goalkeeper who is in place with a contract until 2030. “I’m extremely proud to go to Manchester United; it’s a real dream come true. The last few years have been a fantastic journey, and that journey has now ended in an incredible destination, and is hopefully the start of something very special, says Lammens to ManUtd.com.

Now to Goal’s analysis of the Belgian goalkeeper:
“Naturally, Lammens has been compared to Courtois because of his impressive height of 193cm and agility, and former Anderlecht goalkeeper coach Frank Boeckx is among those who believe he could become Belgium’s best goalkeeper in the long term: “He still has a year or two to develop. His next club probably won’t be Barcelona or Real Madrid, but I wouldn’t rule out that after a while he could reach the level Courtois is at now,” Boeckx told Belgian outlet La Derniere Heure.
It wasn’t Barcelona or Real Madrid, but Manchester United.
“It would be a dream scenario for United, given that Courtois has been the best goalkeeper on the continent for almost 10 years now. Lammens certainly exudes a similar authority in his backline and leads by example when his team comes under pressure. To reach the same heights as Courtois, Lammens just needs to improve his decision-making and avoid the small lapses in concentration that are always punished on the biggest stage. United can provide him with the necessary coach to iron out the flaws in his game, and if he gets off to a fast start at Old Trafford, it won’t be long before he pushes for Courtois’ place at national team level. He has the potential to be the ‘dominant’ No. 1 United have lacked since the days of Edwin van der Sar, and perhaps the goalkeeper for a long-awaited return to the top of the Premier League table,” the English media outlet said.
This bodes well.
