"Following the expiration of his contract in December, Lingard began exploring his options, and that search appears to be nearing a conclusion. While he has held talks with several clubs in England, the Daily Mail reports that another overseas adventure now looks the most likely outcome. Specifically, Lingard is said to be in advanced discussions with Serie A sides, opening the door to a potential move to Italy."
"The Warrington-born midfielder came through the Manchester United academy and spent 11 years in the club's first-team setup, although much of that time involved loan spells at Leicester City, Birmingham City, Brighton, Derby County, and West Ham United, the latter being arguably the most successful period of his domestic career. After leaving United permanently, he spent the 2022/23 season with Nottingham Forest before embarking on his move to South Korea."
Jesse Lingard, 33, is a free agent after leaving FC Seoul in December and is nearing a decision on his next club. Talks with teams in both England and Italy are at an advanced stage, with Serie A sides emerging as likely destinations. Lingard spent two seasons at FC Seoul, making 67 appearances and scoring 19 goals while playing a central role on and off the pitch. The South Korea spell helped him rebuild rhythm, confidence and consistency following a turbulent period in English football. He developed through Manchester United's academy, spent 11 years in their first-team setup with multiple loans, and played for Nottingham Forest in 2022/23.
