Manchester United could allegedly offer playmaker Jesse Lingard a fresh contract at Old Trafford.
The 28-year-old star struggled for action in the first half of the 2020-21 season and was subsequently allowed to sign for West Ham United on loan during the January transfer market.
Jesse excelled for the Hammers, netting nine times and registering five assists in 16 matches, as David Moyes’s side secured a UEFA Europa League spot for next season.
The Irons are said to be keen to sign the player on a permanent deal, but according to a recent report from ESPN, he could yet be a part of the 20-tome English champions’ plans moving forward.
The report says that the Old Trafford outfit are considering offering Lingard a new deal, with his existing terms due to expire next summer.
However, it is unclear whether the attacking midfielder would be prepared to remain with Ole Gunnar Solskjaer’s team unless he was offered assurances over regular game time.
Lingard has scored 33 times and grabbed 20 assists in 210 appearances for Manchester United.
Elsewhere, Borussia Dortmund have allegedly placed a €200 million (£172m) asking price on centre-forward Erling Braut Haaland.
Manchester United, Barcelona, Chelsea, Real Madrid and Manchester City are all said to be interested in the Norway international ahead of this summer’s transfer market.
