With the signing of a player of Lingard’s caliber, Forest, who are now back in the English Premier League, have made it clear that they want to show their desire to stay there.
According to reports, Lingard will make £200,000 per week at Forest. On Wednesday night, the 29-year-old got a physical as his new employer offered him a hefty contract that would make him the highest paid employee at the City Ground.
The 32-cap England international passed up a return to West Ham, who were hoping to reunite him with David Moyes after signing him on loan from Manchester United just two seasons prior.
According to Steinberg of The Guardian, “West Ham had been cautiously confident that they were going to be reunited with Lingard, who shone during a loan with David Moyes’s team two seasons ago.”
They (West Ham) “were reluctant to fulfill the England international’s desire for a deal worth £180,000 but felt that an offer of roughly £150,000 a week would convince him to return,” according to the article.
Lingard, who will surely emerge as the feature performer at the City Ground, becomes Steve Cooper’s seventh acquisition of the summer as Forest deviates from their salary structure.
A month after being released by United after his contract expired in June, the former United employee now joins Cooper’s team as a free agent.
The highly regarded midfielder will pair up with his countryman and former United colleague Dean Henderson, who has previously signed a season-long loan deal with the East Midlands club in an effort to gain first-team playing time.
Numerous other teams, both in England and around Europe, have expressed interest in Lingard. The Three Lions midfielder was hotly rumored to be on his way to Italian champions AC Milan. Both Saudi Arabia and Wayne Rooney’s D.C. United were mentioned as potential destinations.
Lingard’s next club is, in fact, only 91 miles from his hometown of Warrington.
