Jesse Lingard who is currently on the books of Manchester United has reportedly emerges as target for Italian giants Inter Milan who want the Englishman on loan.

So far this season in the Premier League, Jesse Lingard has been finding it difficult to break into Manchester United's first team as Ole Solskjaer is not giving him the green light.

The Englishman will be allowed to leave Old Trafford after playing only two Carabao Cup games this season for the Red Devils

Antonio Conte who is the handler of Inter Milan is keen to give his title chasing stars a January boost as they battle with rivals AC Milan at the top of Serie A.

According to the report on Mirror, Romelu Lukaku and Ashley Young have both given Antonio Conte good report about Jesse Lingard and Inter will now have to talk to Man United chiefs.

Meanwhile, Inter Milan will have to first offload Eriksen who has not been impressive for the club since he joined according to the club's Chief Executive.

“He's had a few issues to adjusting to life at Inter and he's not functional to the team. But that takes nothing away from his professionalism.
“It's only right to give him a chance to seek more games elsewhere. Obviously we need to find a solution.”

Earlier, Legit.ng had reported how Nigerian forward Odion Ighalo received assurances from Manchester United boss Ole Gunnar Solskjaer that he will face his former club Watford in their FA Cup meeting this weekend.

The 31-year-old attacker whose deal with the Red Devils expires at the end of this month has made just four appearances with no goal across competitions this campaign.

However, the Norwegian-born tactician is hoping to make the remainder of the former Super Eagles star memorable by handing him a chance to play against his former teammates.

Ighalo has five goals and one assist in 23 appearances across all competitions since he made a switch to Old Trafford from Shanghai Shenhua.
