Yorke can see Lingard leaving Man Utd

Manchester United Treble winner Dwight Yorke says Jesse Lingard should leave this summer.

Lingard returned to the side for the FA Cup win against Norwich but struggled to impress.

Yorke told Stadium Astro: "The jury's still out. We had a lot of hopes, he came through the ranks and we love that. He knows the club through and through, he loves the football club and we thought he was going to go on where Rashford is at the moment.

“He's come a little unstuck at the moment and he has to find another gear somewhere along the line. At the moment, it's just not happening.

“At 27-years of age, you ought to be a bit regular. If it's not happening, maybe he has to look elsewhere. But for now, he's still got some games and he's still got to prove himself.

“But I think there is a little bit of a question mark over his name at the moment for sure, he's fully aware of that, there's no two ways about that. He knows that he's not in the team and he needs to do more to get back in."
