Jesse Lingard: Former Manchester United Midfielder Training with Inter Miami
Jesse Lingard is a free agent who is currently training with MLS side Inter Miami. The 30-year-old midfielder left Nottingham Forest in the summer and has been linked with a move to the east coast. Wayne Rooney, who was Lingard’s team-mate at Manchester United, declined the chance to sign him.
Inter Miami have already signed Lionel Messi and Sergio Busquets this summer, while Jordi Alba and Sergio Ramos have also been linked with moves. As he’s a free agent, Lingard would not take a designated player spot in Florida. He has fueled speculation that he’s set for a move to David Beckham’s club by sharing a video of him training at the club’s DRV PNK facility.
Lingard Open to Move to Saudi Arabia
Lingard has also been linked with a move to Saudi Arabia. The midfielder admits he would consider a move to Riyadh. ‘I’m considering all options,’ Lingard told Sky Sports recently. ‘I’ve never ruled out any team or club out, so for me it’s just picking the right team and it’s got to be right for me. I just want to play football at the end of the day and that’s all I want to do.’
Conclusion
It remains to be seen where Jesse Lingard will end up next season, but it looks increasingly likely that he will be playing in either the MLS or Saudi Arabia. With so many players moving to the middle-east, Lingard could be the latest star to make the switch. He is open to all options and is looking for the right team that will give him the chance to play football.
