Royal Antwerp are bracing for a potential bid from Manchester United for their promising goalkeeper, Senne Lammens, as the Premier League giants look to bolster their squad.
According to reports from HLN, United’s interest in the 22-year-old Belgian shot-stopper is becoming increasingly concrete, with Antwerp optimistic that an official offer could arrive soon.
Highly-rated Talent
Lammens, who has been with Antwerp since his youth days, has emerged as one of Belgium’s brightest goalkeeping talents. His performances in the Belgian Pro League have caught the attention of several clubs, but Manchester United appear to be leading the race. The Red Devils are reportedly keen to add depth and competition to their goalkeeping department, with Lammens viewed as a long-term investment.
Antwerp, aware of the growing interest, are holding firm on their valuation, hoping to secure a transfer fee in the range of £13-17 million. This price tag reflects Lammens’ potential as a future star, with the young goalkeeper already showing composure, sharp reflexes, and strong distribution skills—qualities that align with United’s modern tactical demands.

Current Options
Manchester United’s current goalkeeping setup includes André Onana as the first-choice keeper, with Altay Bayındır serving as backup. However, the club’s interest in Lammens suggests they are planning for the future, potentially seeking a player who can develop under Onana’s shadow before challenging for the No. 1 spot.
As the transfer window progresses, all eyes will be on whether Manchester United formalize their interest with a bid and if Antwerp’s valuation will be met. For now, Lammens remains focused on his duties at Antwerp, but a move to Old Trafford could be a game-changer for the young Belgian’s career.
