JAKARTA - Jesse Lingard has reportedly left Al Ettikaq after undergoing a trial for one month. Did Lingard fail to impress the Saudi Arabian club?
The former Manchester United player underwent training with Al Ettikaq in the hope of getting a contract from the club.
Please note, the 30-year-old has been without a club since leaving Nottingham Forest at the end of last season. He spent one season there but failed to show his best again.
Lingard hopes to follow in the footsteps of Jordan Henderson and Demarai Gray who have been contracted by Al Ettikaq. However, after one month of trial, the contract has not been offered.
Reportedly, Al Ettikaq actually had the desire to sign the former England national team player. Unfortunately, they don't have any more money to pay Lingard's salary.
In addition, rumors are that the club will have to release two of their foreign players to comply with the quota rules for foreign players in the Saudi Pro League.
Lingard previously underwent training with West Ham last summer to maintain his body condition. However, the English Premier League club did not show any desire to recruit the former player.
