Jesse Lingard is one of the most popular footballers to come out of Manchester United in recent years. The club’s academy graduate might not have been their best player, but he was always loved by the club’s fanbase during his time with the club. Lingard finally left United this summer after his contract expired. He did spend some time on loan with West Ham and was phenomenal at the club. However, it wasn’t enough for him to get a start at United as he made 21 appearances last season, most of them from the bench. As a result, it was only a matter of time till his contract ended and the England international is now looking for a new club. JESSE LINGARD LINKED WITH A MOVE TO THE MLS While clubs in Europe are also interested in him, Lingard has reportedly expressed a desire to play in the MLS. The 29-year-old is traveling to the USA to assess his options. According to a report from ESPN FC [https://www.espn.in/football/soccer-transfers/story/4695325/jesse-lingard-approached-by-mls-clubs-for-ground-breaking-deals-sources], several MLS clubs have prepared pitches for Lingard, as they would all love to have a player of his caliber and popularity. The report went on to say that the two MLS sides have prepared “ground-breaking deals” for Lingard, as his stock is still pretty high in the transfer market. However, things weren’t so good for him just two years ago. It was his time with West Ham that changed everything. LINGARD AND HIS LINKS WITH WEST HAM Lingard joined West Ham on loan in the January transfer window in 2021. The English forward was on fire and became one of the best players in the league with 9 goals in 16 games for the club. However, West Ham wasn’t able to sign the attacker on a permanent deal after talks with United didn’t work out. [https://www.essentiallysports.com/soccer-news-football-news-usmnt-star-tyler-adams-completes-his-dream-move-to-the-premier-league/] West Ham is still interested in signing Lingard and a deal would be much easier now because of him being a free agent. It’ll be interesting to see which club Lingard ends up choosing as his fans would love to watch him play again. 

Former Manchester United star Jesse Lingard is in talks to join a club in the MLS after his contract with United expired.

Jesse Lingard

English player Jesse Lingard has been a Red Devil for almost his entire footballing career. The 26-year old joined the youth academy at the age of 7 before moving up the ranks rapidly. It was only during the 2011 season that he finally broke into the Manchester United squad. However, he only made it as far as the reserves bench on a number of occasions, as Sir Alex Ferguson left him out.

A year later, he was loaned off to Leicester City, along with Michael Keane in order to get more playing time. In all, he made a grand total of five appearances for Leicester until January 2013.

After his loan spell, Jesse Lingard was recalled and included in United’s pre-season tour and finally played his first game for them, under David Moyes. Lingard went on to finish as top scorer in the tour, but it wasn’t enough to remain with the Red Devils, being loaned out yet again.

This time, he was in Birmingham, where he thrived. During a Championship match against Sheffield Wednesday, he scored a hat-trick within the span of 13 minutes. After his Birmingham stint, he was recalled, and carted off almost immediately to Brighton and Hove Albion.

In the 2014-15 season, Lingard was subbed onto the field and helped United defeat Liverpool 3-1 during the International Champions Cup Final. Finally, he reunited with Manchester United and not loaned off to another team in 2015. He would remain with the United squad for the team of his career up till the current season, under Ole Gunnar Solskjaer.

On-pitch Achievements

Out of 167 appearances for Manchester United, Jesse Lingard has netted 29 goals, with his overall tally at 41 in 217 appearances. The 26-year old has also scored four goals in an England jersey, with all four coming in 2018 and one of them during the World Cup. During his time in Manchester United, Jesse Lingard has helped the team to the 2015-16 FA Cup, 2016,17 EFL Cup, the 2016 FA Community Shield and the 2016-17 Europa League championships.

Jesse Lingard’s Net Worth, Salary and Endorsement

The English right-winger has built up quite a brand name for himself. He has the J-Lingz clothing range, aftershave and various accessories. According to rough estimates, Lingard is worth around £11 million. Also, in terms of salary, he earns around £100,000 a week.

Foundations and Charity

Back in 2017, when a terrorist attack hit the Manchester Arena, Lingard and a few of his teammates visited the wounded, most of whom were children. He even attended the One Love Manchester Concert, which raised around £2 million.
