While the Cameroonian is believed to have travelled to west London for Sunday afternoon\u2019s Premier League game at Fulham, his starting place is in the balance.<\/p>\n<p class=\"dcr-130mj7b\">The 29-year-old Onana was left out of the squad for the<a href=\"https:\/\/www.theguardian.com\/football\/2025\/aug\/17\/manchester-united-arsenal-premier-league-match-report\" data-link-name=\"in body link\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"> opening-day loss to Arsenal<\/a> last weekend. His replacement, Altay Bayindir, made an error that directly led to Riccardo Calafiori\u2019s winning goal at Old Trafford.<\/p>\n<p class=\"dcr-130mj7b\">Onana expects to remain at Manchester United beyond the current transfer window, having been made aware that the club have rebuffed inquiries from other clubs for his services \u2013 but he is now poised to face further pressure for his place from Lammens.<\/p>\n<p class=\"dcr-130mj7b\">Lammens is a 6\u2019 3\u201d Belgium Under-21 international who made his senior debut for Club Brugge in July 2021 before moving to<a href=\"https:\/\/www.theguardian.com\/football\/antwerp\" data-link-name=\"in body link\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"> Antwerp<\/a> two years later. His first appearance for the club was that November, in a 2-0 Champions League defeat by Porto.<\/p>\n<p class=\"dcr-130mj7b\">Bayindir currently earns around \u00a380,000 per week, so if Lammens does join United, he can expect a similar salary. Onana is also likely to miss part of the season because of his involvement in Cameroon\u2019s Africa Cup of Nations campaign in Morocco.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Senne Lammens is set to miss Royal Antwerp\u2019s match against Mechelen on Sunday due to his \u20ac20m (\u00a317m)&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":369440,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[2],"tags":[13,12,14],"class_list":{"0":"post-369439","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-news","8":"tag-headlines","9":"tag-news","10":"tag-top-stories"},"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/pubeurope.com\/@uk\/115083081407568681","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/369439","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=369439"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/369439\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/369440"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=369439"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=369439"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=369439"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
