Manchester United have stepped up their efforts to sign Belgian goalkeeper Senne Lammens, according to The Telegraph.

The club want to secure a deal before the summer transfer window closes on Monday night. United’s current goalkeeping options have failed to impress.

Manager Ruben Amorim is determined to strengthen his squad in this area, and Aston Villa’s Emiliano Martinez is another potential option.

Lammens emerges as a leading candidate for United

Amorim wants competition for Andre Onana and Altay Bayindir, who have both struggled.

Lammens is regarded as one of Europe’s most promising keepers and has attracted attention from several clubs.

United have been unable to reach an agreement over personal terms with Lammens.

Galatasaray entered the race by presenting a proposal, forcing United to make an improved offer in an effort to secure the deal.

Royal Antwerp are prepared to sanction a move if they receive an offer worth more than £20 million.

Lammens is an excellent goalkeeper. His skill set includes sound diving technique, reliable parrying and firm handling, making him a steady presence at the back.

He provides leadership inside the penalty area and is comfortable with distribution, helping to launch counter-attacks.

While Lammens needs to improve his focus in high-pressure moments, his physical qualities and core strengths suggest he has the tools to adapt quickly to English football.

United view him as a player capable of lifting standards in a position that has caused repeated problems during Amorim’s early tenure.
