Manchester United have reached an agreement to sign Royal Antwerp goalkeeper Senne Lammens on a five-year contract worth £18.2 million plus add-ons, according to Sky Sports.
The 23-year-old Belgian shot-stopper is expected to travel to Manchester in the coming days to complete his medical and finalise personal terms with the Premier League giants.

United had been exploring options to strengthen their goalkeeping department, holding talks with both Lammens and Aston Villa’s World Cup-winning goalkeeper, Emiliano Martínez.
However, after deliberations, Erik ten Hag’s side identified Lammens as the preferred choice for the long-term project.
Meanwhile, in Italy, veteran striker Jamie Vardy is undergoing a medical in Milan ahead of a move to Serie A club Cremonese on transfer deadline day.
The 37-year-old, who left Leicester City at the end of last season after a glittering 13-year spell at the King Power Stadium, is set to join the Italian outfit as a free agent.
