West Ham United: ExWHUemployee makes eight-word Jesse Lingard claim

Writing on Twitter, reliable club insider ExWHUemployee has made an eight-word West Ham transfer claim involving 2020/2021 loanee sensation Jesse Lingard.

Over 16 Premier League appearances for the club, Lingard bagged a brilliant nine goals and four assists whilst averaging more efforts on goal than any West Ham man (WhoScored).

As a result, reports have heavily linked the 28-year-old with a permanent move to the London Stadium and West Ham are believed to have set it out as a goal for this summer.

The Latest: ExWHUemployee makes eight-word claim

Writing on social media, the club insider responded to a fan question asking if West Ham had dropped their interest in the Red Devils ace going by what he had read about them making an approach for Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain.

Making an eight-word claim, Ex stated: “Nope Jesse is still the number one priority”.

The Verdict: Music to the ears of supporters…

Lauded as ‘absolutely phenomenal’ by talkSPORT pundit Adrian Durham during his exceptional spell at West Ham, it’s hard to argue with that assessment.

It is arguably crucial that the Hammers manage to complete a deal for Lingard and it would certainly be one of the best buys of the summer judging by his 2020/2021 campaign with the club.

ExWHUemployee’s claim that he is still a number one priority for West Ham should come as music to the ears of supporters.
