Jesse Lingard is set to join Corinthians, with renowned journalist Fabrizio Romano confirming the transfer with his trademark “Here we go” expression.
A verbal agreement has been reached for a one-year contract, which includes the option to extend for another season.
Lingard will be transferred as a free agent, despite offers from Major League Soccer clubs, after his two years at FC Seoul.
Travel arrangements and medicals are the next steps before he officially signs with “Timao”, thus opening a new chapter in the former Manchester United midfielder’s career in Brazil, South America.
