Senne Lammens Seizes Man United No. 1 Role With Debut Clean Sheet

Ruben Amorim hailed the 23-year-old’s first outing as a step toward stabilizing a position that has troubled United since David de Gea’s departure.

Overview

  • Ruben Amorim dropped Altay Bayindir and started Lammens against Sunderland, a match United won 2-0 with the Belgian keeping a clean sheet.
  • Lammens impressed with composed handling and aerial command on debut, earning a warm reception from teammates and the Old Trafford crowd.
  • Amorim praised the performance, saying Lammens “did a great job” and “gave us confidence” after handing him the gloves for the first time.
  • Reporting describes strong behind-the-scenes habits from Lammens — first into training, last out, and extra sessions — after a £18–18.2m move from Royal Antwerp, with André Onana loaned to Trabzonspor.
  • Club and media reports compare Lammens to Thibaut Courtois and note a mentoring relationship, while separate reporting says Amorim’s position faces scrutiny following a mixed start to the season.
