The Belgian shot-stopper topped an online fan poll organized by the Premier League. He garnered the most votes, beating out seven other players who switched clubs last summer: Dominic Calvert-Lewin (Leeds), Rayan Cherki (Manchester City), Viktor Gyökeres (Arsenal), João Pedro (Chelsea), Antoine Semenyo (Manchester City), Adrien Truffert (Bournemouth), and Granit Xhaka (Sunderland).

The 23-year-old Lammens arrived at Old Trafford from Royal Antwerp in a €21 million transfer. In the 32 league matches he started, the Red Devils recorded 18 wins, 10 draws, and 4 losses. Lammens himself made 79 saves and kept 8 clean sheets, while conceding 39 goals.

Today, the English top flight also presented another award, which went to Everton goalkeeper Jordan Pickford. He was recognized for the best goalkeeping performance of the season for his display in the 2-0 victory over Brighton, which came in the Toffees' first home match at the Hill Dickinson Stadium.
