Shock move for Jesse Lingard? Former Manchester United star linked with transfer to South Korea after failing to seal Saudi Pro League switch

The England international is, according to <a href="https://twitter.com/SkySportsNews/status/1753168943282262028" target="_blank">Sky Sports</a>, on the verge of completing a move to FC Seoul. The news outlet claims he has reached a verbal agreement over a two-year deal that includes an option for a third. It is also claimed that the Korean club were the most intriguing option available to him.

WHAT HAPPENED?

Lingard has been out of the game since last summer, when he left Nottingham Forest after his contract with the Premier League team expired. He has since been linked with several teams but no deal had materialised. <a href="https://www.goal.com/en-us/lists/jesse-lingard-limbo-ex-man-utd-england-star-potential-comeback-falls-through-saudi-pro-league-transfer-deadline/bltc895a15169e83807" target="_blank">Al-Shabab were also said to be interested in him</a>. The 31-year-old has regularly posted videos of himself training alone as he prepares for a way back into the game and spent a month training with Saudi Arabian side Al-Ettifaq, though Steven Gerrard's team opted against signing him. He <a href="https://www.goal.com/en-us/lists/jesse-lingard-barcelona-former-man-utd-linked-camp-nou-transfer-free-agent-training-dubai/blt090fdab7a9ebe819" target="_blank">reportedly offered himself to La Liga champions Barcelona</a> but they turned him down.

THE BIGGER PICTURE

As well as making over 230 appearances for Manchester United and impressing on a loan spell at West Ham, the winger has represented England's senior team on 32 occasions. However, he failed to impress during his time at Forest and started 12 of his 17 Premier League matches for the club before he left at the end of last season.

DID YOU KNOW?

Lingard will hope to secure a transfer in the near future and could be set to continue his career in Asia if the he manages to get a deal with the South Korean capital club over the line.
