The England midfielder was available after ending his 22-year association with Manchester United during the offseason. Lingard is the 11th signing made by the promoted club as it prepares for a first season in the Premier League since 1999. The length of Lingard’s deal was not disclosed. The 29-year-old Lingard spent the second half of the 2020-21 season on loan at West Ham and scored nine goals in 16 starts in the league. He was linked with a permanent move to the London club.
