Lingard is out of contract in the summer and has been linked with a move away from Old Trafford, however, interest from West Ham for the England international has reportedly cooled recently, leaving the door open for Newcastle to pounce.
However, with new management now in place at Manchester United, Lingard’s career in the north west could be given a revival.

Hide AdIcardi, 28, has reportedly fallen out of favour under Mauricio Pochettino and has been offered to a host of European clubs.
However, if any deal is to be made between Icardi and Newcastle, then they are going to have to fight off some stiff competition.
According to French outlet Footmercato, Icardi has also been ‘offered’ to Juventus, Barcelona and Tottenham Hotspur.
The striker has completed a full 90 minutes just three times in Ligue 1 this season and has played just 40 minutes in the Champions League this season.
