On Wednesday, Manchester United's Jesse Lingard celebrated his 29th birthday and his contract with the club is about to expire, according to the British "Manchester Evening News", Manchester United do not expect Lingard to leave the team in the winter transfer window in January, because waiting for the contract to expire after the free transfer, can get greater benefits.
After entering January, Jesse Lingard was free to contact overseas clubs, and he also had close rumors with West Ham and Newcastle in the Premier League. However, the British media said that Lin Huang's plan is to stay in the team for the time being and finish the season at Manchester United.
Manchester United would certainly prefer to sell Jesse Jesse Lingard next month for a transfer fee, which is expected to be £10 million. On the contrary, if Lingard stays in the team but does not renew his contract, the Red Devils will face the risk of players leaving for free after half a year and getting nothing themselves.
As Jesse Lingard was unhappy with the lack of playing opportunities, his agent's negotiations with Manchester United on a new contract ended once and for all last month. The data shows that Jesse Lingard has not started for Manchester United in the Premier League since New Year's Day 2020, which is a world away from his core position as an absolute main force when he was rented out to West Ham.
Although Jesse Lingard still did not start in the Premier League after Lonnick took office, he made his second start of the season in the Champions League battle against the youngsters. Lin Huang believes that under the command of the German coach, he has the opportunity to get more playing time. The Manchester Evening News said that if Ole Gunnar Solskjaer continued to coach, Lin Huang would undoubtedly go, because he felt that the Norwegian had deceived and ignored himself.
Jesse Lingard did not push for the summer transfer because Ole Gunnar Solskjaer assured him at the time that he could get a chance in the first team. But the opportunity did not come at all, and Lingard felt misled by the boss. Daniel James, who has left Manchester United, started even before the transfer, while Jesse Lingard was not called up.
For Lingard, his future is still in his own hands, even if Lonnick does not reuse him in the second half of the season, he can still transfer freely after the expiration of his contract next summer, when he can fight for higher signing fees and salaries at his new owner.
If the winter window transfers, because the next family must pay the transfer fee, it will definitely affect the treatment level of the players themselves.
Not only that, in the winter transfer window, Manchester United is likely to be reluctant to sell Jesse Lingard to West Ham, after all, Moyes's team is the Red Devils' Premier League fourth direct opponent, And Lin Huang's joining may be a long way to go, so that the strength of the opponent is greatly increased. As a result, Jesse Lingard's options were limited and he had to go to Newcastle. If it is a free transfer, it is up to Lingard to decide where he wants to go.
As for the possibility of participating in the World Cup, the 2022 Qatar World Cup will not be played until the end of next year, and the Premier League will start on August 6, and Lin Huang still has plenty of time to prove himself in the new team. If Manchester United Chooses to transfer to West Ham on a free basis, he played for the team for half a year last season, has many friends, and can be seamlessly integrated, basically without any adaptation period.
