Sunderland’s Goalkeeper Hunt Heats Up: Senne Lammens a Key Target Amid Manchester United Interest
Sunderland’s pursuit of Belgian goalkeeper Senne Lammens has gained momentum, with the 23-year-old reportedly being scouted by Premier League rivals Manchester United. Lammens, who has been touted as a possible option for Regis Le Bris’ side after they missed out on Marcin Bulka and Djordje Petrovic, has addressed the rumors linking him with a prospective move to Old Trafford.
According to Fabrizio Romano, Manchester United has made initial contact with Royal Antwerp to discuss the deal conditions for Lammens. Meanwhile, Sunderland is also in the running to sign the goalkeeper, who has established himself as one of the most statistically impressive goalkeepers in Europe over the past year.
Lammens’ Thoughts on Manchester United Transfer Interest
When asked about the possibility of joining Manchester United, Lammens said he was flattered by the speculation but emphasized that he is focused on his current role at Royal Antwerp. He added that if an offer that benefits the club comes along, he would consider it seriously.
Lammens’ impressive stats, including 177 saves and preventing 16.47 expected goals in the 2024/25 campaign, have caught the attention of top clubs. Sunderland will face stiff competition from Manchester United in the pursuit of Lammens’ signature, but the Black Cats may still have a chance to secure the talented goalkeeper.
As the transfer window heats up, Sunderland’s interest in Lammens will be put up to the test as he competes with United for the signature of the talented goalkeeper.
