The most recent information on Nottingham Forest is provided by NottinghamshireLive amid rumors that Jesse Lingard, a former Reds forward, is being considered for a move to West Ham.
According to reports, Jesse Lingard represented West Ham against Ipswich on Thursday in a friendly played behind closed doors.
After being released by the Reds this summer, the Hammers are reportedly evaluating whether to extend a contract to the former Nottingham Forest forward.
After moving to the City Ground on a free transfer in the summer of last year, Lingard found it difficult to make an impression. For the Reds, the former Manchester United star only managed two goals, both of which came in the Carabao Cup.
The 30-year-old’s playing time was similarly restricted in his final few months at the club; since their 3-1 loss to Tottenham in March, he has appeared in only two minutes for Steve Cooper’s team. The Hammers’ apparent interest in Lingard now appears to have intensified given recent rumours that West Ham is considering bringing him back to the London Stadium.
According to MailOnline, Lingard participated in a friendly on Thursday. The Hammers have been mum on the outcome or how Lingard played, but his presence will feed rumors that he might be returning to the Premier League soon.
David Moyes, the manager, is reportedly “impressed” by his effort in training as they ponder contracting him. Due to his free-agent status, the London club will be able to sign him outside of the transfer window.
