Clubless Jesse Lingard trains at Al-Ettifaq under Gerrard

Further employment possible

Jesse Lingard, the second most valuable professional without a club, is taking part in Al-Ettifaq FC’s training program under Steven Gerrard for a month. The Saudi Pro League club officially announced this. The former England international had kept fit at West Ham United in the summer after leaving Nottingham Forest.

According to transfer experts Fabrizio Romano It is up to Lingard and Al-Ettifaq whether the collaboration results in continued employment; coach Gerrard will unsurprisingly also play a decisive role in this decision. The most valuable players at Al-Ettifaq are Demarai Gray (27; MW 20 million euros), Moussa Dembélé (27; MW 12 million euros) and Jordan Henderson (33; MW 10 million euros).

At the beginning of September, according to consistent media reports, it was said that the “Hammers” wanted to offer the 30-year-old Lingard a performance-based contract for the duration of the current season, including the option for a further one, during the international break. League rivals Wolverhampton Wanderers were also interested in the services of the right-footed player. However, a commitment has not yet come about. In recent months, Lingard had also shown himself not to be averse to a move to Saudi Arabia, but this reportedly fell through over the course of the summer.
