Manchester United will make a decision on Jesse Lingard's future once they have faced Liverpool in the FA Cup, according to a report.

Manchester United will reportedly make a decision on Jesse Lingard's future once they have faced Liverpool in the fourth round of the FA Cup on Sunday evening.

The England international has only made three appearances for the Red Devils during the 2020-21 campaign and continues to be linked with a move away from the club.

Tottenham Hotspur, Sheffield United, West Ham United and Newcastle United are all said to be interested in signing the attacker on loan before the end of the month.

However, according to the Daily Mail, Lingard's future rests on United's result against Liverpool as progression to the fifth round for Ole Gunnar Solskjaer's side could mean that the 28-year-old will be required to stay at the club.

The report claims that a crowded fixture list due to FA Cup, Europa League and Premier League commitments could see Solskjaer decide to keep the academy product at Old Trafford for the second half of the season.

Lingard played 80 minutes of United's 1-0 win over Watford in the third round of the FA Cup on January 9.
