- Neville reveals United‘s stance on Lammens
- Signed the Belgian goalkeeper on deadline day
- Onana and Bayindir continue to struggle
متحد showed urgency in their pursuit of a new goalkeeper towards the end of the summer transfer window after Andre Onana and Altay Bayindir endured nightmare starts to the 2025-26 campaign. Bayindir conceded four goals in United’s first three الدوري الإنجليزي الممتاز games, making clear errors against أرسنال و بيرنلي, while Onana’s disastrous performance against غريمسبي Town led to the Red Devils’ exit from the كأس كاراباو in the second round.
United were also linked with a swoop for wantaway أستون فيلا goalkeeper Emiliano Martinez, but they eventually prioritised a deadline day move for 23-year-old Lammens. Now, speculation is rife over whether the young custodian will feature in Ruben Amorim’s starting lineup once action resumes after the international break.
التحدث إلى إن بي سي سبورتس Red Devils icon Neville said: “I’ve been asking around about that one this morning and spoke to a few people at United. The feeling is the new boy coming in would probably be a No. 2 who would start on the bench, but they absolutely do need a No. 1.”
Amorim’s side, who finally picked up their maiden win of the season against Burnley last weekend, next face rivals مانشستر سيتي on September 14. It remains to be seen if Lammens will make his United debut in the ديربي.
