Manchester United's 'Panic Buy' of Senne Lammens Criticized

Manchester United's 'Panic Buy' of Senne Lammens Criticized

Manchester United made a last-minute decision to buy a new goalie named Senne Lammens.

This happened right before the transfer window closed.

The team was looking for a goalkeeper because their current ones weren't playing well.

Some people think it was a rushed decision.

They paid £18 million for Lammens, who is 23 years old and played for a team in Belgium.

Before they decided on Lammens, they had also considered other experienced goalies.

Ben Foster, a former United goalkeeper, has doubts about the signing, and believes the club was desperate.
