Arsenal are planning to gazump West Ham’s bid to turn Jesse Lingard’s loan move into a permanent one claim the Sun newspaper.
David Moyes wants to make Lingard’s London move permanent after a terrific run of form while on loan with the Hammers
But the Hammers will tell Manchester United where to go if they believe Lingard will be a makeweight for Declan Rice deal.
The tabloid that has opened the door for the Gunners to swoop leading Emirates bosses have made tentative inquiries about him.
Arsenal and Newcastle asked about a potential loan deal of their own before Christmas before Moys sealed the loan deal for £4m
Lingard has just 12 months left on his current contract, and ideally Manchester United would like him to sign another – if only to ensure they get top price should they decide to sell.
Lingard is now swaying towards leaving Old Trafford for good, after getting regular first-team football again at West Ham – something he knows is unlikely if he returns to Manchester. Italian sides Roma and Fiorentina have also been monitoring his situation.
Yawn.
That was exactly what I thought Master, a bit early for the summer transfer drivel. Let’s see where we finish and give him a decision to make. Arteta might be sacked at the end of the season if results continue to drop off.
Think they’ll go all out to make Odegaard permanent. Likely a non-story.
I think the same rag has tried to claim that Man Utd were both keeping Lingard and then a day later putting a £40m price tag on him. Now all of a sudden Arsenal are interested. Almost as if they have an agenda…
Word is that Glasgow Rangers, Napoli and Galatasaray all have plans including Jesse. Everyone is trembling with fear and worried sick that we might have to go to £200million to get him.
