Andre Onana: Major update on Manchester United loanee’s future
Andre Onana: Major update on Manchester United loanee’s future Manchester United have been vindicated in their decision to sign Senne Lammens as Andre Onana’s replacement last summer. The Red Devils arrived at the transfer window on a war footing, having finished the campaign in 15th place in the Premier League. One of the English giants’ biggest issues was their goalkeeping position, with Onana failing to live up to expectations since his much-publicised move from Inter Milan a couple of summers ago.
Last season, with the Cameroonian in goal, United conceded 54 goals in 38 league games, the fourth-most among the top 15 in the table. It was clear that the position needed improvement, and the Red Devils decided to bet on Lammens , who arrived from Royal Antwerp on transfer deadline day. Onana, who had lost his place to Altay Bayindir at the start of this season, was subsequently shipped off on loan to Trabzonspor for the rest of the campaign.
The Belgian custodian was not the most famous name on the European circuit, but he has already turned out to be one of the signings of the summer. Lammens’ season so far Lammens earned his debut for United against Sunderland in October last year and marked the occasion with a clean sheet. He has retained his place in the starting XI ever since and has been exceptional so far.
The 23 year old has been particularly impressive at set pieces, which was one of the Red Devils’ weak points last season with Onana between the sticks. However, Lammens has refused to be bullied at set pieces, and his presence has already brought stability to the backline this season. United have still conceded 45 goals in 33 league games so far this season, the second-most in the top ten of the Premier League.
However, Lammens has not registered any errors leading to a goal. Senne Lammens Premier League Stats: 2025/26 Season Source: Premier League website . Onana’s time at Old Trafford could come to an end this summer, thanks to the Belgian’s impressive form.
