Jesse Lingard could find a club outside of England. The Man Utd attacker is one of the targets both for Barcelona and for AC Milan, as long as he joins on a free.

Jesse Lingard could leave Man Utd for free next summer. The English footballer's contract expires with the Red Devils in the summer and he will struggle to get a place in the starting XI. 

It is for that reason that he will be happy to leave. That is where Barcelona and AC Milan come into play. Both clubs are very interested in getting hold of Lingard, the 'Daily Mail' said. 

Lingard turned down last September a proposal to extend his contract for Man Utd, which means that the Red Devils even considering selling him. 

As a result of the possibility of him leaving for free, Solskjaer is happy to let him leave in January so that they can get some money for him. 

That is where Newcastle United can appear on the scene. The recently taken over club would have to put 15 million pounds on the table for the Man Utd footballer.
