Ex-Man Utd Ace Jesse Lingard On Verge Of Shock Free Transfer To South Korea After Eight Months Unemployed

JESSE LINGARD is on the verge of completing a shock move to South Korean side FC Seoul.

The former Manchester United midfielder has been a free agent since leaving Nottingham Forest in the summer.

According to Sky Sports, Lingard has verbally agreed a two-year deal with the option of a further year to join FC Seoul.

He is expected to fly to South Korea to complete the deal in the coming days.

The 31-year-old had previously been linked with a move to Saudi Arabia this month.

However, Al-Shabab were unable to complete the deal before the Saudi Pro League window slammed shut.

A number of Turkish clubs had also been monitoring Lingard, who even offered himself to Barcelona.
