Jesse Lingard, who previously played for Manchester United and the England national team, is now officially a player for the Brazilian club Corinthians. The footballer has decided to continue his career in South America, despite receiving offers from teams in the English Premier League.
Lingard concluded his time with FC Seoul at the end of 2025 when his contract expired. During his time in South Korea, he established himself as one of the league's main stars, showcasing high productivity and regular playing time.
At Corinthians, Lingard will reunite with Memphis Depay, his former teammate from Manchester United. The arrival of the experienced midfielder is expected to be a significant boost for the team ahead of the start of the Brazilian championship and continental cup competitions.
