Newcastle Keen On Lingard Acquisition
English club Newcastle United are keen on acquiring the services of out of favour Manchester United Player Jesse Lingard.
The Magpies are in desperate need of reinforcements and have made Lingard their "top priority", says The Times.
However, after a stellar loan spell at West Ham last season, the England international is believed to be on the Hammers radar once again and could be tempted to try and re-sign the midfielder in January.
Lingard's contract is set to expire at Old Trafford this upcoming summer and could move for a cut-price fee in January after mainly featuring on the bench for the Red Devils.
Finances will be no issue to Newcastle United given their recent Saudi-led takeover, however their current Premier League standing could ultimately act as a decider for the majority of players.
