"Lammens is not the guaranteed first-choice goalkeeper for the long-run but he has given himself a chance of being No.1 for the next game. And that's all he can hope for and focus on right now. United seem adamant they are not going to commit to a first-choice stopper, because they want a genuine battle for the shirt on a week to week basis."
"But there is no way I would say he's now going to establish himself as the first choice because I do believe Bayindir will still get games and I also think United are still on the lookout for another goalkeeper. I'm pretty sure a new goalkeeper will arrive by the summer and may even arrive in January if they can find a good option. Again, this is about competition and strength in depth."
Manchester United completed summer signings including Matheus Cunha, Bryan Mbeumo, Benjamin Sesko and goalkeeper Senne Lammens. The club intends to pursue another goalkeeper in 2026 to secure competition and strengthen depth. Lammens has impressed and earned opportunities to start, but he is not guaranteed the long-term number one role. Bayindir is expected to continue receiving playing time while scouting continues. A new goalkeeper could arrive in the summer of 2026 or possibly in January if a suitable option is available. The club prioritizes a genuine week-to-week battle for the goalkeeper position.
