Former Manchester United and West Ham midfielder Jesse Lingard is heading to Asia.

The attacking midfielder is signing on the dotted line with FC Seoul in South Korea.

The 31-year-old has finalised the deal and completed his medical, per The Standard.

Lingard, who has been without a club since the summer when he left Nottingham Forest, was linked to Saudi Arabia.

He did not join a Saudi Pro League club, but failed to find a European team either.

His move to six-time K League winners FC Seoul is a surprise to many, but not to the player.

Lingard believes he will enjoy the lifestyle in South Korea and is excited about expanding on his off-field interests.
