The 28-year-old England midfielder needs to get into crew for 2022 World Cup 

Cristiano Ronaldo and Jadon Sancho's appearance hasn't helped his United possibilities 

Barcelona and AC Milan will be at the front of the line to sign Jesse Lingard on the off chance that he leaves Manchester United on a free exchange the following summer. 

Lingard dismissed the proposal of another agreement from United last month so he could weigh up his choices prior to settling on a choice on his future. 

The 28-year-old England midfielder needed to perceive how much playing time he was given by Ole Gunnar Solskjaer following the signings of Cristiano Ronaldo and Jadon Sancho, having gone through the second 50% of keep going season borrowed at West Ham. 

In any case, Lingard has made only one beginning this season – against West Ham in the Carabao Cup – and has invested more energy in the pitch for his country than he has for his club. 

Lingard needs to boost his odds of being in Gareth Southgate's crew for the World Cup one year from now after barely passing up the Euros this late spring. 

It presently seems like he will see out the remainder of his agreement until June and leave on a free exchange, finishing a relationship with United extending back over 20 years. 

Solskjaer needs to keep Lingard and United could yet make a worked on offer – or even attempt to sell him in January – however an official choice will lie with the player. 

He can open discussions with unfamiliar clubs from January 1 and it's perceived that Barcelona and Milan have both communicated a solid interest in marking him as a free specialist. 

In the mean time, United commander Harry Maguire on Wednesday affirmed that he has not prepared since experiencing a calf injury last month, which means Solskjaer will be without his two best option community backs at Leicester on Saturday. 

Raphael Varane has effectively been precluded with a crotch strain and Maguire said: 'It's arriving yet I actually haven't prepared at this point with the crew. It's clearly a disappointing physical issue for me, yet I'm advancing and I will be back on the pitch soon.
