Early life
Club career
Club Brugge
Lammens came through the youth systems of KRC Bambrugge, Dender and Club Brugge.[5] On 3 October 2018 he was included in the first-team matchday squad for the UEFA Champions League group match away to Atlético Madrid, aged 16.[6]
On 11 December 2019, then 17-year-old Lammens scored a stoppage-time headed equaliser to make it 2–2 for Club Brugge's under-19s against Real Madrid's under-19s in the UEFA Youth League group stage; the result secured Brugge's progress to the knockout phase.[7]
He featured for Club NXT—Club Brugge's U23 side—in the First Division B during the 2020–21 season, the team's debut campaign at that level.[8]
With first-choice goalkeeper Simon Mignolet injured, Lammens started for the senior side in the Belgian Super Cup on 17 July 2021, a 3–2 win over Genk.[9][10] He started again on the opening matchday of the Pro League season on 25 July 2021 against Eupen, and later appeared in a 3–0 Croky Cup win over Deinze on 27 October 2021.[8][11] On 22 May 2022 he came on as a second-half substitute for Mignolet in the final match of the champions' play-offs against Anderlecht.[12]
Antwerp
On 8 June 2023, Lammens left Club Brugge at the end of his contract and signed a four-year deal with Antwerp, then the reigning Belgian champions.[13] He made his senior Antwerp debut on 1 November 2023, starting a 4–1 Belgian Cup win away to Lierse; coach Mark van Bommel had indicated beforehand that Lammens would be considered for the tie.[14][15][16]
During the 2023–24 season he served primarily as understudy to Jean Butez, featuring again in the domestic cup, including a December tie against Lierse.[17] By the start of the 2024–25 season he had established himself as Antwerp's first-choice goalkeeper ahead of Butez, a change noted widely in Belgian coverage.[18][19][20]
Lammens' performances in 2024–25 drew particular notice for shot-stopping and penalty saves; by mid-February he had saved four penalties in all competitions.[21] He was also a regular winner of Antwerp's fan-voted Player of the Month award during the season, including November 2024 and March 2025.[22][23][24]
Manchester United
On 1 September 2025, Manchester United signed Lammens in a deadline day move from Royal Antwerp for a reported transfer fee of £18.1m.[25][26]
Lammens made his debut on 4 October 2025 and kept the first clean sheet of the season for Manchester United against newly promoted Sunderland in a 2–0 home victory.[27]
International career
In March 2025, Lammens was named in the senior Belgium squad for the 2024–25 UEFA Nations League play-off matches against Ukraine on 20 and 23 March 2025, respectively.[28][29][30]
On 18 November 2025, Lammens made his senior debut for Belgium, keeping a clean sheet in a 7–0 World Cup qualifying win against Liechtenstein.[31]
