Video Southgate shares about Lingard

Although once considered as one of the elite products matured from the youth academy of Man Utd, Jesse Lingard’s role has decreased significantly after each season.

The English star made a strong impression after his loan stint at West Ham and was intent on finding a chance to return to the starting lineup. However, things did not go as planned. This season, Lingard has only started once for the Red Devils. 

Coach Ralf Rangnick showed that he did not respect Lingard. In the context that Man Utd needed to find an equalizer against Altetico Madrid at the end of the game, it was Juan Mata who was chosen by Rangnick instead of Lingard. 

 Lingard is interested in many clubs. 

The star born in 1992 was on his way to leave Old Trafford and he was soon offered by several clubs. According to journalist Nicolo Schira, when Lingard becomes a free agent in the summer of 2022, West Ham and Newcastle United want to sign the player . In addition to offers from the Premier League, the English midfielder has also become a target of clubs in Serie A.

It is known that AC Milan and AS Roma are willing to roll out the red carpet to welcome Lingard. In the event that Lingard goes to Roma, he will have the opportunity to reunite with Jose Mourinho. Lingard’s most explosive season was in 2017/18, when he worked with Mourinho at Roma.
