Altay Bayindir will retain his place in goal for Manchester United in Sunday's derby against neighbours City - but head coach Ruben Amorim says new arrival Senne Lammens has potential to be first choice "for a number of years".

United signed Lammens, 23, for £18.1m from Belgium top-flight club Royal Antwerp on deadline day in preference to World Cup winner Emi Martinez, who was ready to leave Aston Villa.

With Andre Onana leaving for Turkish outfit Trabzonspor on loan, it has created uncertainty over the status Amorim's current number one.

Bayindir has started all three Premier League games so far this season – making mistakes that led to goals against Arsenal and Burnley – and will retain the job at Etihad Stadium.
