# Virals: West Ham make ‘push’ to sign Manchester United ace Jesse Lingard

[West Ham](https://readwestham.com/2022/01/31/virals-west-ham-have-shown-interest-in-psg-outcast-lavyin-kurzawa/) will reportedly make a late ‘push’ to sign Manchester United attacking midfielder [Jesse Lingard](https://readwestham.com/2022/01/25/virals-jesse-lingard-hoping-west-ham-make-loan-move/).

The 29-year-old was [superb](https://www.sofascore.com/player/jesse-lingard/205508) whilst on loan in East London last season and had seemingly reignited a stalling career.

However, having [chosen to return to Old Trafford](https://www.manchestereveningnews.co.uk/sport/football/transfer-news/man-utd-jesse-lingard-news-21614483) and fight for a permanent role in the first-team, Lingard is once again at a crossroads.

According to a report from [90min](https://www.90min.com/posts/west-ham-revive-jesse-lingard-interest-deadline-day-loan-enquiry-man-utd-newcastle), as cited by [Sky Sports News](https://twitter.com/SkySportsNews/status/1488156608710520840) on Twitter, the Irons will reignite their interest in the closing hours of the window.

The report claims that West Ham have ‘renewed their interest’ in the [32-cap](https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/jesse-lingard/nationalmannschaft/spieler/141660/verein_id/3299) ace and have made a deadline day ‘loan enquiry’ to make the deal happen.

This season Lingard has [scored twice and provided one assist](https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/jesse-lingard/leistungsdaten/spieler/141660) in 14 appearances across all competitions.

### READ WEST HAM VERDICT

Valued at £18million and out of contract at the end of the season ([Transfermarkt](https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/jesse-lingard/marktwertverlauf/spieler/141660)), any temporary departure for the Englishman would likely be a final act as a Manchester United player.

Already a [multiple trophy winner](https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/jesse-lingard/erfolge/spieler/141660), Lingard must surely be considering a switch in order to secure a place in Gareth Southgate’s squad for the World Cup later this year.

Whilst the signing worked with superb success last term, having the likes of Said Benrahma, Nikola Vlasic and Said Benrahma already [in situ](https://www.whufc.com/teams/first-team/squad) makes a move for the ace all the more unlikely.

Meanwhile, a report from [The Times](https://www.thetimes.co.uk/article/cf76fee8-826b-11ec-b939-57ea9f594ba1?shareToken=8ecd7ed13bca429a72a54cc498093f75) has claimed that the Hammers could make a surprise attempt to sign experienced Juventus midfielder Aaron Ramsey.
