Former Manchester United star Jesse Lingard was on his way South Korea on Sunday night after agreeing a shock deal to join FC Seoul.

The 31-year-old posted a picture on Instagram at the airport with his luggage featuring his JLingz fashion label as he prepared to check in for a Korean Air flight.

Lingard has been without a club since leaving Nottingham Forest at the end of last season, and training stints with West Ham and Saudi Arabian club Al-Ettifaq were dead ends.

He is not bound by Thursday's January transfer deadline and the deal is expected to be completed in the coming days.
