Manchester United, who activated the Lingard extension contract option, receives a transfer fee even if they transfer
[골닷컴] Man-Sung Han = Manchester United (Man U) is about to renew his contract with Jesse Lingard, 28, who has not played in a single match in the English Premier League and UEFA Champions League this season.
Lingard’s current contract ends in June, when the season ends. He was on the waiting list in just two games in the Premier League this season, but he hasn’t yet played. Lingard has not yet played in the Champions League this season, and has only played in two games in the Carabao Cup (League Cup). In fact, he is a player who was excluded from the concept of Ole Gunnar Solskár Manchester United.

However, United have recently set aside the option to extend the one-year contract, including when signing a contract with Lingard in 2017. English media reported that Manchester United plans to invoke an option to extend the contract with Lingard in the near future.
Some are reacting that Manchester United cannot understand why the club wants to renew his contract when Lingard, who is paid a considerable salary, is removed from the team’s power. However, the Daily Mail, an English daily newspaper, reported that the reason for Manchester United to sign a renewal contract with Lingard is that it plans to initiate an early contract extension option in order to receive a transfer fee even if he leaves the transfer market next winter or next summer.

“The Daily Mail” said, “Lingard may still leave United in January right now,” and “There are many clubs that want him not only in England but all over Europe. The reason United wants to renew his contract with him in 2021 is that It’s because we don’t lose it for free in the summer.”
Lingard made his first team debut on the premier league stage in the 2014/15 season after growing up through the Manchester United Youth Academy. He has previously been on loan to Leicester City, Birmingham City, Brighton and Derby counties to gain experience in the English Championship (second division), but has been playing with only one team since returning to Manchester United in 2015.
