Jesse Lingard, the former Manchester United star, has surprised everyone by sharing a photo of his bags being checked at an airport.
Lingard has recently made a surprising move to FC Seoul after being released by Nottingham Forest at the end of the 2022–23 season. Despite trying out for West Ham and Al-Ettifaq and being connected to teams in the United States and Turkey, Lingard has not yet secured a new contract.
Lingard has been focusing on his personal fitness program while also trying to attract potential suitors. Surprisingly, he has received an offer from South Korea. Despite being 31 years old, Lingard is open to a new challenge in Asia and has prepared his passport for the journey. He shared a picture on his Instagram story showing his personalized JLingz bags being checked onto a Korean Air flight on Sunday.
FC Seoul initially thought that signing Lingard would be unrealistic due to his experience in the Premier League. However, they have managed to put together a deal that satisfies all parties involved. It appears that Lingard will now be heading to the Far East.
Lingard has reportedly reached an agreement for a well-paying contract with FC Seoul. He will be eager to show that he is still a valuable player, especially after being without a club for several months. The final steps of this impressive move are expected to be completed on Monday.
