The talks between Jesse Lingard and Manchester United over a new contract with the forward have been put on hold for the time being, according to , after several rounds failed to yield satisfactory results.
Lingard s future at Old Trafford seemed non-existent for a long time, but a highly successful loan spell with West Ham in the second half of last season appears to have resurrected the hope he could still make his mark for Ole Gunnar Solskjaer s team. He is now in the final season of contract at the club, and his upturn in form in recent months is likely to attract plenty of attention with the possibility of a free transfer growing with every passing day.
Meanwhile, the 29-year-old has only played five matches in the Premier League this term, scoring twice, and some outlets that this holdup in talks is a sign that he s had enough and wants to leave the club.
