Jesse Lingard (28 years old) is not a starter in the Manchester United. After his remarkable season last year on loan at West Ham, this year he has been getting little into the ‘Red Devils’ and in January they could open the door for him. In England, specifically the Daily Mail, they continue to insist on the Barça as a possible destination for the English international attacker, who can play perfectly in the winger position that Xavi is looking for.

The problem is that United will hardly give in to a player who ends his contract in the summer and the Barça Now he is trying to sign footballers on loan with an option to buy at the end of the season. It remains to be seen how he negotiates with the English team.

Lingard So far this season he has played 154 minutes, in which he has had time to score two goals and provide an assist. Last season he left in January to play on loan at West Ham in order to try to have options to play the European Championship. He scored 9 goals and gave 5 assists in 16 Premier matches.
