'I am confused, why he didn't join West Ham permanently?': Trevor Sinclair questions Jesse Lingard's ambitions after 'turning down return to London Stadium before rejecting new deal at Manchester United'

Trevor Sinclair insists Jesse Lingard is 'not as ambitious as I'd like him to be' after reportedly turning down a return to West Ham before allegedly rejecting a new deal at Manchester United.

The 28-year-old excelled at the London Stadium after joining on loan for the second half of last season, scoring nine Premier League goals for David Moyes' side and playing a pivotal role in helping them qualify for the Europa League.

His form saw him picked for England's provisional 33-man squad for Euro 2020 this summer, although he was later cut from the final 26-man squad named by Gareth Southgate.
