# Newcastle United: Magpies ready ‘huge offer’ for Jesse Lingard

**Newcastle United are reportedly now ready to make a ‘huge offer’ to sign Jesse Lingard in the January transfer window.**

### The Lowdown: Developing story

The Daily Mail journalist [Craig Hope](https://twitter.com/CraigHope_DM/status/1483758978853130242) has recently revealed that the St. James’ Park faithful are now ‘working’ on a loan deal for Lingard, but sources are saying that Manchester United are apparently ‘reluctant’ to let him leave at this moment in time.

However, with just over a week of the window left, both clubs will have to come to a decision over the player, and Lingard’s [lack of game time](https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/jesse-lingard/leistungsdatendetails/spieler/141660/plus/0?saison=2021&verein=&liga=&wettbewerb=&pos=&trainer_id=) may just be a factor in whether or not he moves to the North East.

### The Latest: Offer ready

As per 90min journalist [Graeme Bailey](https://twitter.com/GraemeBailey/status/1483829353381339140), the Tyneside outfit are now readying a ‘huge offer’ for Lingard, and the Red Devils are ‘likely to accept’ their approach.

However, it is not clear if the player himself would be willing to move this month, or wait until the summer, when his contract at Old Trafford [expires](https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/jesse-lingard/profil/spieler/141660).

### The Verdict: No-brainer

If the Magpies can get Lingard in before the January deadline hits, then it is surely a no-brainer for all parties.

With seemingly no route to regular first-team action in the northwest, Lingard will surely be desperate to play, and the Toon should jump at the chance of bringing a player of his quality in.

Described as ‘[phenomenal](https://talksport.com/football/864306/jesse-lingard-premier-league-best-player-currently-raheem-sterling-england/)‘ by talkSPORT pundit Adrian Durham during his time on loan at West Ham United last season, Lingard showed what he can do when given his opportunity, scoring [nine goals and making a further five assists](https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/jesse-lingard/leistungsdatendetails/spieler/141660/plus/0?saison=&verein=379&liga=&wettbewerb=&pos=&trainer_id=) at the London Stadium.

Nonetheless, he would offer another dimension to their attack, and could be the difference in turning draws like the one they picked up against Watford into wins.
