Manchester United finishes third after manager change and goalkeeper Senne Lammens shines

Manchester United dismissed manager Ruben Amorim in January and appointed Michael Carrick as caretaker. Under Carrick the club rose to third place in the Premier League and secured a Champions League berth with three games remaining. Club CEO Omar Berrada praised Amorim for improving standards in the dressing room despite the difficult season.

Belgian goalkeeper Senne Lammens, who joined United from Royal Antwerp for €20 million, delivered a standout season, attracting praise from former greats and raising his market value to €35 million. His performances earned him a backup spot for Belgium at the World Cup and ambitions to become the club’s long‑term number one.
