Lingard hadn’t participated in a competitive game before moving to Seoul; that was in April 2023, when he entered the game late and helped Forest lose 2-0 to Manchester United. Throughout the course of the season, he made 20 appearances and netted two goals for the City Ground.

With regard to his move to the K-League, the 31-year-old recently stated: “I’ve always wanted a different challenge and to create new memories in my career.” That is, in my opinion, best done in South Korea.”

“At a press conference, Lingard stated that FC Seoul had demonstrated a great deal of passion by making a tangible offer on paper, even though other clubs were reaching out to him.” “They also traveled to Manchester to examine my physical state.”
