There has been interest shown in Manchester United<\/a>\u2019s Jesse Lingard<\/a> from multiple Premier League<\/a> sides despite his unwillingness to leave, according to Sean Kearns of Metro<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Interest in Jesse Lingard from Multiple Premier League Rivals Despite Reluctancy to Leave<\/h2>\n

Underwhelming Time at United<\/h3>\n

A late bloomer, Jesse Lingard made his senior debut on the first game of the season in 2014, starting the match against Swansea City<\/a>. However, he came off after just 24 minutes.<\/p>\n

The Englishman sustained a knee injury, and his next appearance for the Manchester United first-team came over a year later in October of 2015. By the time he had established a place starting sporadically, Lingard was 24 but still seemed to have a lot of potential.<\/p>\n

The Englishman never became the world-class player he once seemingly had the potential for and has since become infamous at Old Trafford.<\/p>\n

In the middle of the 2017\/18 season, Lingard looked to have found his quality, with nine direct goal involvements from a nine-game spell in the Premier League, but this quickly ended, with the midfielder managing just one goal from his next fifteen games in the league.<\/p>\n

Another period like this occurred upon Ole Gunnar Solskjaer<\/a>\u2019s arrival. Lingard transformed into a midfield maestro for a few games, but then returned to his former, unpopular and underwhelming self.<\/p>\n

Personal issues<\/a> have hampered his past year and a half, but with his footballing quality not having been up to a sufficient standard, the Red Devils are looking to offload him, along with many others who do not fit with Solskjaer\u2019s rebuild.<\/p>\n

Everton and Arsenal Interested<\/h3>\n

Everton<\/a> and Arsenal<\/a> would both like to sign Jesse Lingard in the summer, according to the report.<\/p>\n

The Englishman recently switched agents, teaming up with Mino Raiola, and suggested that a move elsewhere was on the cards.<\/p>\n

Lingard still wants to stay at the Theatre of Dreams, though, but if a good offer came in, the Red Devis would be likely to accept and Lingard may have no choice but to part ways with his boyhood club.<\/p>\n
