Tottenham are interested in signing him on a free transfer in the summer, but Newcastle are emerging as a possible destination for Lingard this month.
The Magpies are working on a loan deal to take Lingard to St. James’ Park in the ongoing transfer window.
Such a deal would represent the only way for Manchester United to secure a significant fee from Lingard’s departure.
Newcastle are also prepared to cover the entirety of the midfielder’s £100,000-a-week wages for the rest of his Manchester United contract.
Lingard is yet to commit to a move and is believed to favouring moving to a London club, boosting West Ham’s hopes.
However, Newcastle are pushing to secure him on loan for the rest of the season as they look to survive in the Premier League.
