Martial left on loan to go to La Liga for Sevilla, but his friend Jesse Lingard did not have such luck. According to the Daily Telegraph, Manchester United's transfer negotiations with Newcastle over Jesse Lingard have broken down and the England midfielder will unsurprisingly remain at Old Trafford until the summer contract expires.
Jesse Lingard has only six months left on his contract with Manchester United, and Newcastle, who are fighting for relegation, are keen to recruit him to increase their weight in the Premier League. But Manchester United offered a transfer fee of nearly 10 million euros, which is obviously a bit of a mistake to Newcastle, although it is not bad money after being acquired by the Saudi consortium, but Newcastle still refused, and the two sides eventually shot twice.
This result makes Jesse Lingard very depressed, because it means that he still does not have many opportunities to play in the second half of the season, which will seriously affect his impression in the mind of England manager Southgate. To know that this winter, the World Cup is going to start in Qatar, England is full of talent, if Lingard because of the low attendance at the club, it will really want to cry without tears, after all, he is 29 years old, this may be his last World Cup.
In fact, in addition to Newcastle, Tottenham and West Ham, where Jesse Lingard played last season, also intended to recruit him, but they were all rejected by Manchester United. The reason is also very simple, these two teams are Manchester United's direct rivals, sending Jesse Lingard to them is to dig a hole for themselves, this reason Manchester United still wants to make sense. But Newcastle are only relegation teams, they will not put any pressure on Manchester United and are willing to pay the transfer fee, why are the Red Devils still unwilling to release people, is it because the transfer fee is not enough? Of course not.
The release of Martial is because he has a high salary of £250,000, his departure can save Manchester United a lot of money, and with C Ronaldo, Cavani, Greenwood and Rashford and Others already in the front line, Martial's departure has little impact on United's attack.
But Jesse Lingard is different, with a weekly salary of just £75,000, which is a small salary for United. More importantly, although Jesse Lingard is not the main force of the team, he is not a useless person. When B Fee has ups and downs in state or even injury, Lin Huang's role will be highlighted, he is one of the few players in manchester United midfield with the ability to hold the ball and attack, which is even stronger than B Fee. With him there, United have more confidence in keeping the top four in the Premier League.
This also shows how important it is for United to enter the Champions League next season. With Champions League qualification, Cristiano Ronaldo will not choose to leave the team, although it is difficult to say whether his departure is a good thing or a bad thing, and if Manchester United wants to attract more powerful players to join, such as Haaland, the Champions League qualification is also very important. Of course, entering the Champions League also means more revenue, compared to these, Newcastle's multi-million pound transfer fee is insignificant.
Of course, even if Lin Huang stays, it is not without hope to enter the World Cup. In the remaining half of the season, Lonnick, who is becoming more familiar with Manchester United, should give him more opportunities to play, and Lin Huang's diligence on the field is very much in line with the German's high-level pressing tactics. In addition, at the end of the season, Lin Huang still has half a season to prove his strength, so as to conquer Southgate and catch the last train to Qatar.
