‘That is special’ – 22-year-old responds to Manchester United transfer interest

Manchester United have been linked with a transfer move for Royal Antwerp goalkeeper Senne Lammens in recent times, and the player has now responded to the rumours.The 22-year-old has impressed and looks like a big talent to watch for the future, so it could be that we’ll one day see him at a big club like Man Utd.Sources recently told CaughtOffside about the Red Devils looking at Lammens, while Arsenal could also be suitors to keep an eye on.Lammens might arguably be good enough to give United an upgrade on Andre Onana in goal, with the Cameroon international mostly struggling in his time at Old Trafford so far.The player himself has now commented on the speculation, and it’s fair to say he seems pretty excited to be linked with a big name like United.Senne Lammens responds to Manchester United transfer linksWhen asked about MUFC apparently being interested in him, Lammens told Gazet van Antwerpen, as quoted and translated by Sport Witness: “The first time I heard it, I thought: wow, Immediately a world team that follows you. That is special. Of course I was also asked about it a lot and when I made a save in training,“Those top clubs have so many scouts and follow so many players. So it doesn’t have to mean anything yet. It will only become clear in the summer whether anything will come of it. But of course, it is only positive.“Especially because it is about the best competition in the world and my profile – my stature and way of playing – is suitable for English football. You have to physically hold your own there and that suits me.“I do follow the teams that follow you a bit. But it’s not like I’m watching full matches.
