Senne Lammens docked to Manchester United, Onana is still overshadowed by uncertainty

Gilabola.com – Manchester United has reached an agreement with Royal Antwerp to recruit Belgian goalkeeper, Senne Lammens. This transfer is worth Rp 404 billion with a five -year contract at Old Trafford.

The 23 -year -old player is scheduled to arrive soon in Manchester to complete the administration before the transfer deadline is closed at 7 pm local time.

The club’s internal source said that Lammens was seen as a young goalkeeper with bright prospects in the world of European football.

Manchester United actually had considered the name of Emiliano Martinez from Aston Villa, but in the end management considered Lammens as a more suitable choice for the team’s long -term project.

Although it has been confirmed to join, it is still unclear whether Lammens will be immediately plotted as the main goalkeeper. This is mainly because Ruben Amorim, Manchester United coach at this time, admitted that being the main goalkeeper at Old Trafford was not an easy task.

He considered that the position of goalkeeper in a club as big as Manchester United always received a big spotlight and the decision of the goalkeeper change often occurs because of an urgent situation.

Amorim also considered that the problem faced by the team was not only an individual goalkeeper’s mistake, but also the weakness of the defense organization when facing an opponent’s attack.

In recent weeks, the Manchester United defense sector has indeed been in the spotlight. Of the total six goals that nested into their goal this season, four of them were recorded as direct mistakes from the goalkeepers.

Altay Bayindir is responsible for two goals, while Andre Onana also did two blunders who were conceding, making the ruler the most doubtful area in the team.

Onana and his future shadow

Andre Onana’s fate at Old Trafford is now increasingly uncertain. Although the Cameroon goalkeeper wants to survive, the situation at the club makes his position doubtful. Initially, Onana had felt safe because Manchester United did not place the position of goalkeeper as a top priority in the transfer market.

In fact, the news that Emiliano Martinez only entered into the last day of the transfer window had made him calm. However, the final agreement with Lammens has now again raises a big question mark regarding his future.

Onana is 29 years old and has made a crucial mistake several times. The latest, he was not included in the squad when Manchester United won 3-2 over Burnley at Old Trafford in the Premier League.

Previously, Onana was considered the main cause of United’s shocking defeat in the second round of the League Cup against Grimsby Town, after two of his mistakes made the opponent able to score goals.

With the presence of Lammens, competition under the Manchester United ruler is certain to get tougher. The club still hasn’t confirmed whether the Belgian young goalkeeper immediately won full trust, or it will be forged before becoming the first choice.
