Jesse Lingard's move to Newcastle is in danger of collapse, despite Ralf Rangnick giving the deal his blessing... as Manchester United hold firm in their demand for loan fee and substantial survival bonus

Jesse Lingard's move from Manchester United to Newcastle is in danger of collapsing after the two clubs failed to agree terms.

Lingard was given the green light to spend the remaining five months of his United contract on loan at St James’ Park following talks with interim boss Ralf Rangnick on Tuesday.

However, Newcastle are reluctant to pay a loan fee and substantial bonus if they win their battle to stay in the Premier League, as well as footing Lingard’s £100,000-a-week wages. It’s understood the entire package could cost the club’s Saudi owners in excess of £15million.
