West Ham United could look to make a move for the former Manchester United attacker Jesse Lingard.
According to a report from Football Insider, West Ham could look to sign the 30-year-old in order to add more quality and depth to their attack.
Lingard has previously played for West Ham and he had an impressive loan campaign at the London club. He has been linked with a return in the past as well.
The 30-year-old has proven himself in the Premier League over the years and he has the experience of winning major trophies like the Europa League as well. West Ham will be competing in the UEFA Europa League this season and they could certainly use his experience and quality.
The Hammers struggled in the attack last season and they need to improve their attacking options heading into the summer transfer window. They have already signed Mohammed Kudus to add creativity and goals to their attack. The arrival of Lingard will improve them further.
The 30-year-old is a free agent right now and he will be an inexpensive addition for West Ham. The opportunity to play for the Hammers will be an attractive option for the player as well. Lingard has previously expressed his admiration for the London club and he has always been vocal about how he enjoyed his loan spell with the Hammers.
Regular football in the Premier League with West Ham would be ideal for the 30-year-old and the former Manchester United attacker will relish the opportunity to showcase his quality in the Europa League as well.
West Ham have sanctioned the departure of former club captain Declan Rice earlier this summer and they have improved their squad significantly with the proceeds from his sale. They will be expected to push for a top-half finish this year after flirting with the relegation battle last year.
It will be interesting to see if David Moyes can get the best out of his players in the coming months.
Meanwhile, Lingard will be hoping to hit the ground running at West Ham if the move goes through. He has the ability and the experience to make an immediate impact for the Hammers and improve them going forward.
Grab him! If he can carry on where he left off last time, he will well be worth it!!
