Jesse Lingard's brother posts scathing Manchester United message after no Old Trafford farewell

Jesse Lingard's brother on Monday hit out at Manchester United after the midfielder was left on the bench for what is expected to be his final Old Trafford game.

Lingard has decided not to extend his contract, which will expire at the end of the season, after again failing to earn a regular first-team spot. West Ham were keen to sign the midfielder last season after a fine loan spell, but then-manager Ole Gunnar Solskjaer vetoed a transfer away only to then not afford him a league start before he was sacked.

Lingard's woes continued under interim boss Ralf Rangnick, who ruled out a January exit for the 29-year-old amid interest from Newcastle. Lingard has made 11 appearances for Rangnick of which just two have been starts.
