# West Ham United: Hammers fans react as transfer insider shares Jesse Lingard news

**According to a report by ‘[transfer insider](https://twitter.com/deanjonessoccer?lang=en)‘ Dean Jones, writing for [Eurosport](https://www.eurosport.co.uk/football/transfers/2020-2021/chelsea-s-fikayo-tomori-set-for-25m-milan-switch-west-ham-eye-serie-a-hotshot-transfer-notebook_sto8314126/story.shtml), West Ham United loanee Jesse Lingard is likely to join in a permanent deal worth around £25 million – with many Irons reacting as this ‘brilliant’ news emerges.**

It’s no secret that manager David Moyes wishes to make Lingard a permanent West Ham player, with club insiders [C&H](https://www.claretandhugh.info/board-ready-to-back-moyes-on-priority-signing/) recently revealing it is among his top priorities along with a new striker.

Now, bringing a development, transfer insider Jones has provided a very promising update with his information.

As well as the transfer fee expected to be around £25m, Jones says that Lingard is also likely to join on a salary at around £100,000-per-week.

Given his sensational form this season, scoring nine goals and three assists in 13 Premier League starts for the Irons ([WhoScored](https://www.whoscored.com/Players/109000/Show/Jesse-Lingard)), it’s little wonder supporters have flocked to this latest Lingard update whilst calling it ‘brilliant’.
