Manchester United star Jesse Lingard commits to the #FootballUnited intiative, joining team-mate Aaron Wan-Bissaka and Arsenal's Hector Bellerin in campaign to raise £100k to combat the coronavirus

Jesse Lingard has joined the #FootballUnited movement after pledging his support to the fundraising campaign.

The Manchester United star has backed the initiative, which is in partnership with the National Emergencies Trust, following its launch by a host of the Premier League's most high profile stars after taking to social media in support of the cross-club alliance.

Since Wednesday's launch, Lingard, Rob Holding, Reiss Nelson, Max Aarons and Christian Benteke are among the players to have joined the alliance.

Donations in #FootballUnited's name have been made to the Just Giving page that set up especially for the campaign and the general National Emergencies Trust appeal, which has raised £11million.
