The player who won the UEFA Cup with Manchester United and now could join Everton

A former Manchester United player would be still interested in joining a Premier League club despite having been terminated the contract with his last club in the league to take a new challenge in his career, and he would be claiming to have a new opportunity in the tournament with Everton as the main club interested in his services.

The player in question is the Manchester United former playmaker Jesse Lingard, who made his senior debut with the team in 2014 after having been for six years in the club’s academy, was in the Red Devils’ squad until 2022, when he was transferred to West Ham in a loan deal and he joined Nottingham Forest in the summer once his contract at Manchester United was terminated.

However, things didn’t go well for Lingard at Forest, and the player terminated his contract again with the hope to have a chance at Al Ettifaq in the Saudi Pro League, an opportunity that never arrived for him, remaining without club for the rest of the season and waiting for a new club in the January transfer window.

Everton could give a chance to the player

In this sense, according to the English journal Daily Mail, Everton would have appeared as a clear option for the player, since the Merseyside club would be interested in signing him these days as the club’s sporting director Kevin Thelwell recently confirmed by saying that despite “January is unlikely to be a busy month” for the Toffees, Everton “will explore” signing affordable players they think will ” deliver an immediate boost to the squad in the short-term.”
