Jesse Lingard (34), who left the K-League stage, will take on a new challenge in Brazil. The destination is the prestigious Corinthians of Brazil.

"Jessie Lingard signed a pre-contract with Corinthians," Brazilian media Globo Isforchi reported on the 28th (local time), adding, "We will arrive in Sao Paulo on the morning of the 1st and undergo a medical test before signing a formal contract that is valid until the end of 2026."

According to the media, Lingard's side signed the contract in advance on Saturday, and the Corinthians proceeded with Lingard's ticket to Sao Paulo. Lingard will fly from London and arrive via Guarulius International Airport on Sunday morning local time. Then, a medical test will be conducted on Monday, and if there is no abnormality in all procedures, the final contract will be signed immediately.

Lingard, who said goodbye to FC Seoul at the end of last year, is currently a free agent (FA) status without his team. Therefore, the transfer process can be finalized regardless of the deadline for the transfer window, which closes on Tuesday local time.

The media explained, "Lingard, who received attention from multiple clubs at home and abroad, went through a review by the leaders of the Corinthians club, and finally went to Brazil with the approval of Doribau Junior."

Lingard, who played for Manchester United for 20 years, including his youth days, played mostly in England, including West Ham and Nottingham Forest.

In the last two seasons, he has played 67 official games for K League 1 FC Seoul, scoring 19 goals and 11 assists.

If he joins Corinthians, he will reunite with Memphis Depay, a Dutch striker who was a teammate of Manchester United in the past. The two players played a total of 31 games together from 2015 to 2016.
