Jesse Lingard is reportedly associated with an incredible transfer to Barcelona following his departure from Nottingham Forest, with a significant ‘hindrance’ reportedly overcome.
After departing Nottingham Forest just one season into his stint at the City Ground, Jesse Lingard remains without a club as a free agent. Eager to reignite his career, the attacking midfielder has encountered difficulties in securing a new team.
In a recent development, Lingard has enlisted the services of new agents, who, as reported by the Daily Mail, have proposed him to MLS side Portland Timbers. Despite this, there is a potential groundbreaking opportunity for Lingard to continue his football journey in Europe. Mundo Deportivo indicates that he has emerged as a viable option for Barcelona.
Given Barcelona’s current financial challenges, free-agent signings have not been overlooked by the club. In the ongoing season, they acquired Ilkay Gundogan from Manchester City and Inigo Martinez from Athletic Club under similar circumstances. The latest information suggests that Lingard is now being considered as another possible addition in the upcoming weeks.
