Manchester United are reportedly closing in on the signing of Belgian goalkeeper Senne Lammers from Royal Antwerp, with personal terms understood to be nearly agreed.
The 23-year-old shot-stopper has emerged as the latest target for the Red Devils this summer as manager Ruben Amorim looks to bolster his squad following a period of scrutiny over the goalkeeping department.
United have faced criticism over Altay Bayindir’s performance in the opening-day defeat to Arsenal, where the Turkey international deputised for Andre Onana.
With Onana recovering from a pre-season hamstring issue, and Tom Heaton also available, the club appear keen to strengthen competition between the sticks, reports MEN.
Lammers, who made his top-flight debut for Club Brugge at 19 before moving to Royal Antwerp in 2023, is reportedly attracting interest from other clubs in France and Italy, prompting United to act swiftly.
