Sports News] Recently, South Korean K-League team Seoul FC made a major
announcement on their official website. They revealed that Jesse Lingard, the
former Manchester United and Nottingham Forest star, has joined the team for a
significant fee of 15.5 billion won, making him the highest-paid player in the
K-League. Lingard had been without a club for eight months since leaving
Nottingham Forest as a free agent on June 2nd last year. He had a brief
training stint with Daman in September but failed to secure a contract. Joining
an Asian team presents both a challenge and an opportunity for Lingard, and FC
Seoul’s trust in him has provided him with a chance to return to the game.
Despite being 31 years old, Lingard has chosen to take on this new challenge
instead of opting for a comfortable route, which is commendable and deserving
of respect. The editor expresses great anticipation for Lingard’s performance
with FC Seoul.
