Jesse Lingard reportedly made it clear to West Ham United that he did not want to return to the London Stadium during the recent transfer window.

Jesse Lingard reportedly made it clear to West Ham United that he did not want to return to the London Stadium during the recent transfer window.

The 28-year-old spent the second half of the 2020-21 campaign on loan at the Hammers from Manchester United, scoring nine times and registering five assists in 16 appearances during a successful spell.

The England international was strongly linked with a permanent move to the London Stadium over the summer, but the transfer window closed with the attacker still at Old Trafford.

According to 90min, David Moyes's side did not make a late push for Lingard, having been informed that the playmaker was not interested in a return.

The report claims that the Englishman will revisit his situation in January, but a move to West Ham is unlikely to occur, with the Man United academy product making it clear that he was not interested in a permanent switch to the Hammers, who will play in the Europa League this season.

Lingard - out of contract with Ole Gunnar Solskjaer's side next summer - has only played four minutes of Premier League football for the Red Devils this term.
