Jesse Lingard could reportedly reject a summer switch to Tottenham Hotspur in favour of moving abroad.
The England international's contract at Manchester United is due to expire at the end of June, and he is widely expected to leave the 20-time English champions in search of pastures new.
Newcastle United and West Ham United are thought to be planning to reignite their interest in the playmaker this summer, while Tottenham have also been strongly linked with a move.
According to football.london, the North London club have spoken to Lingard's representatives about the possibility of moving to the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium ahead of next season.
However, the report claims that there are indications the 29-year-old would prefer to move abroad in search of a fresh challenge.
Lingard, who was denied a January loan exit away from Old Trafford, has scored twice and registered one assist in 16 appearances for Ralf Rangnick's side during the 2021-22 campaign.
The attacker featured off the bench in the recent Premier League draws with Burnley and Southampton but was an unused substitute against Brighton & Hove Albion on Tuesday night.
