Transfers DONE DEAL: Ex-Man United star Lingard joins South Korean side FC Seoul

Former Manchester United and England midfielder Jesse Lingard has completed a move to South Korean side FC Seoul.

Lingard has been without a club since his contract expired at Nottingham Forest at the end of last season. It is understood the 31-year-old has signed a two-year deal with the K-League club, with the option for a further year.

Lingard said he had received “many offers” but had decided he wanted a new football experience in South Korea.

“I’ve always wanted a different challenge and to create new memories in my career,” Lingard said in a YouTube video, adding: “I believe South Korea is the perfect place for that.”
