Altay Bayindir’s high-profile mistake against Arsenal last Sunday made it clear that Manchester United needed a new goalkeeper.
That first-half error gave the Gunners the opportunity to depart Old Trafford with all three points, even though the Red Devils were well in control.
Naturally, commentators and former players chastised the Turk, but Ruben Amorim encouraged him to succeed. Nevertheless, there are rumors that Andre Onana would be put back in goal for the match against Fulham despite the public vote of confidence.
His confidence might be damaged by that, but his problems might not end there. The Peoples Person reports that the 20-time English league champions are now interested in Royal Antwerp’s Senne Lammens.
Bayindir the likely fall guy
Additionally, the Turkiye international’s tenure in Manchester may come to an end with the arrival of the Belgian. According to Centredevils, the club and the goalie are having in-person discussions as the transaction moves forward.
When he gets there, the 23-year-old is anticipated to compete against Onana. He helped maintain ten clean sheets last season and was outstanding.
According to fbref statistics, Senne Lammens was in the 99th percentile for crosses stopped and the 93rd percentile for saves. That demonstrates his mastery of the six-yard box, which is lacking in both United goalkeepers.
“In recent days, representatives of Senne Lammens have met in person with a Manchester United delegation, and all sides are seeking a speedy resolution,” CentreDevils can exclusively disclose.
Face-to-face talks
“The Red Devils want to be fast to beat competition with Lammens pushing too. There is an internal feeling of confidence regarding the deal for the Belgian now, with the club seeing Lammens as a goalkeeper for the future and someone who can compete right now with Andre Onana.
“With this strategy, Amorim can successfully manage rotation and keep training competitive, which could eventually help the squad in a season full of games.
“Lammens’ possible arrival demonstrates United’s dedication to long-term planning by striking a balance between short-term performance demands and long-term goalkeeping succession planning.”
Given the form problems with both Onana and Bayindir, the Old Trafford team most definitely needs a new, trustworthy goalkeeper. Senne Lammens will be less expensive to bring in than Gianluigi Donnarumma and Emiliano Martinez.
