The player is known for his performances for Manchester United
Midfielder services Jesse Lingardwho is in free agent status, were offered Barcelona.
The Catalan club is happy with the option of Lingard, since his salary will be less than two million euros. In addition, versatility speaks in favor of the ex-England national team player, because Jesse will be able to cover any position in the Blaugranas attack line.
Lingard is known for his performances for Manchester United – 35 goals and 21 assists in 232 matches over eight (intermittent) years. The wide attacking midfielder has left Nottingham Forest without a club since the summer of 2023.
In the fall, Jesse stayed in shape with Saudi Arabia’s Al-Ittifaq. However, the team coached by Steven Gerrard did not have the opportunity to sign the ex-Manchester United footballer due to the exhausted quota for foreign players. French Lille, as well as clubs from Saudi Arabia and MLS, were interested in Lingard’s services.
The Catalans are in third place in the La Liga standings. On January 11, Xavi’s team will play against Osasuna in the semi-finals of the Spanish Super Cup.
