Lingard pens an emotional farewell message to West Ham

 

Jesse Lingard’s future remains uncertain as he heads back to Manchester United following a stunning loan spell with West Ham, but he leaves the door open to a return in an emotional goodbye message to the Hammers faithful.

Having fallen to the periphery of the United squad under Ole Gunnar Solskjaer, a rejuvenated Lingard took the Premier League by storm after signing for the Hammers in January, with his nine goals and five assists in 16 games proving crucial as West Ham qualified for the Europa League.

David Moyes has been vocal about his desire to extend Lingard’s stay, but the power is entirely in United’s hands, with one year remaining on the England international’s contract.
