When signing for Manchester United, Senna Lamence was wearing a plain sweatshirt and looked like he was going to work in an office at Old Trafford rather than a star player who signed for 18 million pounds. He wore a similar low-key look when he was selected for the Belgium team. This is one of the good qualities that the 23-year-old Belgian goalkeeper is recognized for. He does not pursue the limelight, but works hard in a down-to-earth manner. This is the complete opposite of former goalkeeper Andre Onana, who liked to be the protagonist.

British media revealed that Ramens applied to the club to go to Carrington for additional training during the holidays. Not only that, he took detailed notes after every game and every training, which earned him the recognition of the coaching staff. In fact, Ramens has had this habit since he was a child.

Haik Mirkern, Lamens's past coach, recalled: "I occasionally saw a report saying that the clothes he wore when playing for the national team were too ordinary and boring, but the fans expressed their hope that he would continue to maintain this style of dressing. Such calmness and calmness are exactly the character of Senna (Lamens). He is very He is very introverted and does not like exaggerated style. He focuses on what he needs to do, is honest with the people around him, and always maintains a pragmatic and down-to-earth attitude. "

When working with Club Brugge, Milkern was Lamens' coach. He served as a reserve team assistant, interim head coach, and U18 head coach. Now one of them has joined the giant Manchester United, and the other is the youngest coach in Belgium. Milkern praised Lamens' professionalism: "I used to spend the night at Club Brugge's training ground because sometimes I worked late and there was a dormitory there. I sometimes saw someone walking into the gym late at night, and that was Senna. He was wearing headphones and doing recovery training in the gym, or doing extra training. Sometimes he would also play basketball. He likes basketball very much."

Lamens joined Brugge's youth training system at the age of 12 and played for the team against Manchester United in the European Youth Championship. It's a pity that he failed to become a first-team regular in the team. Because Bruges had former Liverpool goalkeeper and national goalkeeper Simon Mignolet at the time. Lamence, who was unwilling to serve as a substitute goalkeeper all the time, refused to renew his contract after it expired and chose to move to Royal Antwerp on a free transfer. In his first season in Antwerp, Ramens mainly served as a substitute, but in the 2024/25 season, he became the main force.

But coach Milkern revealed that Bruges recognized Ramens' performance only because Mignolet could not give him a chance. "Senna's decision-making ability is very good. He is very calm and can always find a solution to the problem in the game; his reaction speed is very fast, and he also understands the balance between risk and reward, and knows the right decisions to make." He said, "His passing skills are very good, his footwork is also extremely skilled, and he is simply top-notch in terms of saves. He has made many amazing saves even then. He is indeed a very comprehensive goalkeeper."

Regarding Lamens’s characteristics, his mentor concluded: “He is able to make correct decisions at a very young age and shows a high degree of maturity, which is really impressive. In addition, he can play freely with both feet, which is another significant advantage of his.”

Last season, Lamens performed outstandingly in his first full professional league season, saving 4 penalty kicks, and was selected for the Belgian national team for the first time in March this year. "When I knew Manchester United contacted him, I was not surprised. He completed a clean sheet in his debut and I was happy for him. Sene has full potential to become the main goalkeeper of Manchester United and the Belgian national team." Milkern said, "He seized the opportunity he got and we are proud of him. I believe he will have a successful career and Manchester United will become a powerful giant again."

Lamence also left a good impression on the Manchester United coach, and many people spoke highly of him. He had settled down in Manchester, moving from hotels to a rented house. In addition to playing basketball, he also likes golf, which he shares a common language with teammates Tom Heaton, Luke Shaw, Mason Mount and Maguire.

After Manchester United defeated Liverpool, teammates hugged Lamence, one of the heroes of the victory. When he kept a clean sheet against Sunderland on his debut, De Ligt, Amad Diallo, Maguire and Luke Shaw also congratulated Ramence. The audience in the West Stand chanted: "Senna Lamens, are you Peter Schmeichel pretending to be you?"
