‘Jesse Lingard wanted to get back to Man Utd to see Cristiano Ronaldo in real life!’ – Free agent told he has ‘let himself down’ &

needs to stop ‘showboating’ if Everton are to snap him up

The former England international midfielder played alongside five-time Ballon d’Or winner Ronaldo at Old Trafford in 2021-

22 after returning from a loan spell at West Ham in the same summer as an all-time great secured a stunning return to

Lingard severed ties with United a few months prior to Ronaldo, as he joined Nottingham Forest as a free agent, but has been

without a club since being released at the end of the 2022-23 season. The 31-year-old has taken in trials at West Ham and Al-

future holds any substance.

Former United defender Parker, who won two Premier League titles while with the Red Devils, has told SpilXperten of why

Lingard is a risk for any suitor and what he needs to do in order to rebuild his reputation: “It´s a gamble for any club to take

Jesse Lingard. He is not good enough to play for Barcelona, everyone knows that. He has let himself down with the West Ham

situation. I think he wanted to get back to Man United just to see Ronaldo in real life. He decided to act disrespectful to

Nottingham Forest as well. He virtually went there just to chill and he never proved himself.

“If Everton decides to buy him, I expect them to have a clause where they can terminate the contract if he doesn’t live up to the

expectations. Everton is not an easy club and he really needs to prove to the fans that he is there for the right reasons and not

for showboating. He needs to stop everything that he usually does. Ashley Young might help him in terms of calming him

down. He is a good role model and maybe he should have been his agent during the summer when he tried to get the move to

Saudi Arabia with all the money, which didn’t turn out well.”

After completing United’s renowned academy program, Lingard made 232 appearances for the team and earned 32 senior caps

for England. But lately, he’s had questions about his fitness and form, which has him wondering if Saudi Pro League, MLS, or

Premier League teams will take a chance on him.
