JESSE LINGARD rejected TWO Premier League offers before joining Nottingham Forest last year, according to reports.<\/p>\n
After being released by Manchester United at the end of the 2021\/22 season, Lingard was linked with a return to West Ham – where he had enjoyed an impressive loan spell.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
However, he ended up joining newly-promoted Forest on a lucrative one-year deal.<\/p>\n
Now The Athletic have revealed he turned down a pair of four-year contracts from Newcastle and Fulham.<\/p>\n
And his decision to reject them in favour of Forest proved to be a poor one.<\/p>\n
Lingard, 31, registered just two goals and two assists in 20 matches.<\/p>\n
All four of those goal involvements came in the Carabao Cup as Forest narrowly avoided relegation from the Premier League with a 16th place finish.<\/p>\n Meanwhile, Newcastle secured a Champions League spot, while Fulham also earned themselves a place in the top half.<\/p>\n Lingard was released by Forest in the summer after a dismal spell at the City Ground.<\/p>\n And after six months as a free agent, he remains without a club.<\/p>\n <\/span><\/p>\n <\/span><\/p>\n <\/span><\/p>\n <\/span><\/p>\n CASINO SPECIAL – BEST CASINO WELCOME OFFER<\/strong><\/p>\n After training with West Ham, he turned his back on a move to the London Stadium to jet off to Saudi Arabia.<\/p>\n Lingard began getting in shape with Steven Gerrard's Al-Ettifaq, before they opted against offering him a contract.<\/p>\n Earlier this month, he shared a video showing he is continuing to train while he searches for a club.<\/p>\n<\/picture>OUT OF MY LEAGUE <\/span><\/p>\n
