Manchester United are on the verge of signing Senne Lammens from Royal Antwerp on the final day of the summer transfer window, according to Sky Sports. The report has claimed that the Belgian goalkeeper is undergoing a medical and will complete a move to Old Trafford for around £18.2 million plus add-ons.
Emiliano Martinez was expected to make the move to Man Utd, with the goalkeeper telling his club Aston Villa that he wanted to join the Red Devils. The former Arsenal goalkeeper had agreed on personal terms with the Villans, but, according to journalist Fabrizio Romano, the impending loan move of Jadon Sancho put a flight to it.
Romano told GiveMeSport: “The idea of Manchester United from what I’m hearing was to do a permanent deal swap with Jadon Sancho and Emi Martinez.
“Not to involve any money basically with a valuation of around £25 million for both players. But, at the moment, from what I’m hearing, this is impossible because Sancho is only going on loan.
“Sancho is not accepting a permanent move, so a loan deal to Aston Villa and for Martinez there are other options to explore.”
