Jesse Lingard has been linked with a move away from Manchester United, who have recently signed French international Paul Pogba. Jesse said he was “unhappy” in his role with the club and expressed hope that Ralf Rangnick’s video of Man Utd fans is what prompted him to leave Old Trafford.,
Manchester United’s Jesse Lingard has been upset by a fan video that shows his team’s manager Ralf Rangnick “upsetting” him. Read more in detail here: man utd news.

Jesse Lingard has expressed his displeasure with film allegedly showing Ralf Rangnick dismissing the Manchester United player because ‘he would go in the summer anyhow.’
Lingard has been at United for more than two decades, having joined the club’s youth at the age of seven and made 224 first-team appearances.
However, the England striker wants to leave Old Trafford this month following a lack of playing time the last two seasons, and is interested in joining Premier League rivals Newcastle on loan.
Lingard is becoming more ‘mad’ and’dismayed’ with Manchester United for delaying his loan transfer, and his move to St James’ Park is now in jeopardy.
Lingard, on the other hand, has a number of grievances with the club, and is claimed to be ‘upset’ by a video that seemed to show Rangnick dismissing the 29-year-old.
Rangnick is seen signing autographs as a fan encourages him not to trade his “favorite player,” Lingard, in a video said to have been shot after United’s 1-0 victory against West Ham on Saturday.
‘He’ll depart in the summer anyhow,’ Rangnick said as he took a break from signing autographs. TikTok and other social media sites have been used to share the video.

Rangnick will only remain in control of Manchester United until the summer, after which he will move into a consultant job at Old Trafford, where he will continue to have a say on deals.
Lingard knows he can succeed away from the Theatre of Dreams, having had a great six months with West Ham last season, scoring nine goals and assisting five times.
West Ham are still interested in acquiring Lingard this transfer window, and might take advantage of the Manchester United-Newcastle stalemate.
‘Jesse is a commodity that is not playing for his football club that would be a benefit to a lot of teams in the Premier League,’ Hammers coach Stuart Pearce said last week on talkSPORT.

‘There is no question that our [club] is one of them. Everyone is aware that we attempted to reclaim Jesse last summer, and that will most likely continue in this window as well, but it is entirely up to Jesse.
‘Jesse has six months remaining on his contract; he and, more crucially, Manchester United will determine what his future will be for the following six months.’
Lingard’s Manchester United teammate Anthony Martial was given a loan transfer away from Old Trafford earlier this month, with the French attacker joining Sevilla on a season-long loan.
