Football journalist Pedro Almeida claimed yesterday that West Ham United will sign Jesse Lingard from Manchester United permanently in the summer for around €25 million (£21 million).

And that seems like an absolute no-brainer for the Hammers.
Lingard has been in sensational form since moving to the London Stadium on loan from Man United in January.
The 28-year-old has racked up an incredible nine goals and three assists in just 10 games for West Ham so far.
He has completely transformed the way in which we attack what with his pace, energy and enthusiasm for the game.
Lingard’s fine form for the Hammers has earned him a recall to the England national team.
Jesse Lingard for £21 million a no-brainer for West Ham
The Manchester United owned ace could be on his way to the London Stadium on a permanent basis in the summer.
That’s according to Pedro Almeida. The football journalist claims that the Hammers will have to pay just £21 million to make the deal happen:
If we get the 27-capped England international signed up for that fee, it would be truly sensational business.
David Moyes will be desperate to have Jesse Lingard amongst his ranks once again next season.
The talented attacking midfielder has proven over the past few months that he is a class above.
If West Ham manage to sign Jesse and keep Declan Rice, whilst adding three or four top class players in the summer, we could be in a really strong position to become top six regulars in the Premier League.
The Hammers fans love everything about the 28-year-old star.
And £21 million for his signature could end up looking like absolute peanuts.
