Lingard made his first-team debut at Manchester United during the 2014-2015 season, after spending two seasons out on loan at Leicester City and Birmingham City. Since then, Lingard has been sent on loan to Brighton, Derby County, and most recently, West Ham United.
The spell at The Hammers was his most successful, scoring nine goals in sixteen league games. After failing to make an appearance for United in the few months leading up to his loan spell, Lingard needed a move to reignite his career.
