| Ryan Giggs has been impressed with Jesse Lingard's performances |
JESSE LINGARD is in line for talks on a new Manchester United contract, according to reports.
The Mirror claim Lingard and his representatives have been invited to open negotiations on a new deal as a reward for his impressive first team performances.
The 22-year-old is currently earning around £25,000-a-week on an incentive-based contract which rewards the midfielder for first team appearances.
But talks are set to begin on an agreement that could double Lingard’s weekly wages to £50,000 after Christmas.
The Warrington-born ace has impressed Louis van Gaal and his No 2 Ryan Giggs since breaking into the first team.
Lingard crossed for Wayne Rooney to score the match-winner against CSKA Moscow in the Champions League and scored his first Premier League goal for United in the 2-0 win over West Brom.
His standout performances have also seen him called up to Roy Hodgson’s England squad for the first time.
