"Altay is going to continue, he said. It is a different league, different country, different ball [for Lammens]. So they [he and Bayindir] will fight for the position. We are really pleased he is a goalkeeper with a lot of potential. We are in the moment that the goalkeeper needs to be really strong and have a lot of experience but we also have to look at the present with a focus on the future so it is a bit of both. He will be ready."
"Andre Onana did a very good season at Inter [before joining United in summer 2023], the quality is there, but in the club sometimes things are getting harder, the pressure is so hard, sometimes you need a change, he said. Our thinking is to have a change in the goalkeepers but I wish the best for Andre Onana sometimes you can have all the quality in the world but you need a change."
Altay Bayindir has started Manchester United's three Premier League games and has been selected as the club's immediate first-choice goalkeeper. Senne Lammens joined from Royal Antwerp for £18m on transfer deadline day and is seen as a player with significant potential who needs time to settle in a new league, country and with a different ball. Ruben Amorim intends for Bayindir and Lammens to compete for the position, balancing the need for current experience with future planning. Andre Onana has moved to Trabzonspor on a season-long loan after struggling with pressure at the club. United considered Emiliano Martinez before signing Lammens.
