🚨 OFFICIAL: Manchester United have confirmed the signing of Belgian goalkeeper Senne Lammens from Royal Antwerp for a fee of €21 million.
The 22-year-old shot-stopper becomes the latest addition to United’s squad as Sir Jim Ratcliffe and manager Rúben Amorim continue reshaping the team for the new season. 🔴✅
Lammens, who came through the youth ranks at Club Brugge before moving to Antwerp, has built a strong reputation as one of Belgium’s most promising young goalkeepers. Standing at 6’6”, he combines commanding aerial presence with sharp reflexes and modern ball-playing ability, making him a perfect fit for Amorim’s philosophy of building from the back. His performances in the Belgian Pro League and European competitions caught the attention of several top clubs, but United acted decisively to secure his signature.
The move is seen as part of United’s long-term goalkeeping strategy. While André Onana remains first choice, Lammens is expected to provide strong competition and eventually challenge for the number one spot. With the club aiming to reduce reliance on veteran backups, this transfer ensures depth and security in a crucial position.
Upon confirmation of the deal, United issued a warm welcome to their new signing: “We are delighted to bring Senne Lammens to Old Trafford. He is a goalkeeper with huge potential and strong mentality, and we believe he can develop into an important figure for Manchester United in the years ahead.”
Lammens himself expressed his excitement, stating that playing for United is a dream come true and that he looks forward to working hard, learning from his teammates, and helping the club fight for trophies.
This €21m deal highlights United’s continued commitment to investing in youth and building a squad capable of competing at the highest level both now and in the future.
Welcome to Manchester United, Senne Lammens! 🔴✨
