"The 23-year-old has quickly risen to prominence in European football and is now seen as one of Villa's primary targets should Emiliano Martinez leave the club this summer. Martinez, Villa's World Cup-winning shot-stopper, has attracted strong interest from Manchester United, who remain locked in negotiations with the Midlands club over a potential transfer. While Villa have no desire to lose one of their most important players, the reality of the market has forced them to prepare contingency plans."
"Aston Villa are interested in Senne Lammens Romano reports that Lammens has emerged as the main option, alongside Porto's highly-rated Diogo Costa, in Villa's shortlist of possible replacements. The goalkeeper situation has become really interesting as Man United have been chasing Lammens for a long time but now they have turned their attention towards Martinez, forcing Villa to consider Lammens now."
Aston Villa have made a formal approach to Royal Antwerp for 23-year-old Belgian goalkeeper Senne Lammens as a potential replacement if Emiliano Martinez leaves. Lammens has risen rapidly in European football and features on Villa's shortlist alongside Porto's Diogo Costa. Manchester United have pursued Martinez and continue negotiations with Villa; meeting Villa's valuation would clear the path for a replacement signing. Villa have prepared contingency plans and moved to approach Antwerp to avoid being caught off guard. Martinez remains a Villa player for now while goalkeeper succession planning proceeds actively.
