Former Man Utd midfielder Lingard 'will be remembered for TikTok videos'

Former Crystal Palace owner Simon Jordan has slammed released Manchester United midfielder Jesse Lingard.

Lingard is now a free agent after coming off contract at United last month.

Jordan told talkSPORT: "He has taken three years of his career and flushed it because he's not accepted that he's not really regarded highly enough at Man United to get in their team.'

"He had an opportunity to go to West Ham and he's made it about finances. He's run down his contract so he can leave on a free contract because he knows that will put his wage packet on a certain level.

"Jesse Lingard will be remembered, for me, for TikTok videos."
