Newcastle Stil Keen On Lingard Deal
Newcastle United are still keenly interested in signing Manchester United midfielder Jesse Lingard despite the club rejecting their initial approach.
Talks continued into the night as Newcastle tried to sign the England forward on loan ahead of this weekend’s match against Leeds.
United are thought to favour a permanent move, while a loan may suit both Newcastle and Lingard with the risk of relegation hanging over the North East club.
It is looking increasingly likely Newcastle would have to make an incredible offer to both United and Lingard himself to get this one over the line this month.
