Senne Lammens (born 7 July 2002) is a Belgian professional footballer who plays as a goalkeeper for Premier League club Manchester United.
Lammens came through the youth systems of KRC Bambrugge, Dender and Club Brugge. [1] On 3 October 2018 he was included in the first-team matchday squad for the UEFA Champions League group match away to Atlético Madrid, aged 16. [2]
On 11 December 2019, then 17-year-old Lammens scored a stoppage-time headed equaliser to make it 2–2 for Club Brugge's under-19s against Real Madrid's under-19s in the UEFA Youth League group stage; the result secured Brugge's progress to the knockout phase. [3]
He featured for Club NXT—Club Brugge's U23 side—in the First Division B during the 2020–21 season, the team's debut campaign at that level. [4]
With first-choice goalkeeper Simon Mignolet injured, Lammens started for the senior side in the Belgian Super Cup on 17 July 2021, a 3–2 win over Genk. [5] [6] He started again on the opening matchday of the Pro League season on 25 July 2021 against Eupen, and later appeared in a 3–0 Croky Cup win over Deinze on 27 October 2021. [7] [8] On 22 May 2022 he came on as a second-half substitute for Mignolet in the final match of the champions' play-offs against Anderlecht. [9]
On 8 June 2023, Lammens left Club Brugge at the end of his contract and signed a four-year deal with Antwerp, then the reigning Belgian champions. [10] He made his senior Antwerp debut on 1 November 2023, starting a 4–1 Belgian Cup win away to Lierse; coach Mark van Bommel had indicated beforehand that Lammens would be considered for the tie. [11] [12] [13]
During the 2023–24 season he served primarily as understudy to Jean Butez, featuring again in the domestic cup, including a December tie against Lierse. [14] By the start of the 2024–25 season he had established himself as Antwerp's first-choice goalkeeper ahead of Butez, a change noted widely in Belgian coverage. [15] [16] [17]
Lammens' performances in 2024–25 drew particular notice for shot-stopping and penalty saves; by mid-February he had saved four penalties in all competitions. [18] He was also a regular winner of Antwerp's fan-voted Player of the Month award during the season, including November 2024 and March 2025. [19] [20] [21]
On 1 September 2025, Manchester United signed Lammens in a deadline day move from Royal Antwerp for a reported transfer fee of £18.1m. [22] [23]
In March 2025, Lammens was named in the senior Belgium squad for the 2024–25 UEFA Nations League play-off matches against Ukraine on 20 and 23 March 2025 respectively. [24] [25] [26]
