Arsenal enquire about United's sought-after surplus

'The Athletic' assure that Arsenal have sat down to chat with Manchester United about the possible transfer of Jesse Lingard ahead of the 2020-21 season.

And we say sit down, but virtually, of course, because the coronavirus pandemic which is plaguing the whole world is preventing everyone from having a normal life in all corners of the globe.

However, this confinement isn't preventing clubs from following their plans ahead of next season, with the RW one of those signalled to leave Old Trafford at the end of the season.

United have apparently already put him up for sale to cash in on his exit, moment in which Arsenal have entered the scene to sign him, despite his numbers not being the best: just 2 goals and another 2 assists in 35 matches.
