Sheffield Wednesday eye Jesse Lingard loan

Championship side Sheffield Wednesday are exploring a loan deal for Manchester United forward Jesse Lingard.

The 22-year-old has impressed during his previous loan spells in the second tier, and manager Carlos Carvalhal will seek to bring him to Hillsborough on a temporary basis.

According to The Star, Owls scout Glenn Roeder had watched the youngster score during United's Under-21s win over Everton last week.

Lingard has struggled to make a league start for United since his injury against Swansea City in the 2014/15 Premier League opener.
