FC Seoul are six-time K League champions and have twice reached the final of the Asian Champions League with Lingard set to further improve their squad, provided he passes his medical. The former Manchester United star has been without a club since he left Nottingham Forest in the summer.

As he was leaving Incheon International Airport, he received a danso, a traditional Korean musical instrument, from a fan as a welcome gift.

Lingard reportedly received 26 offers before deciding on South Korea as his final destination. His contract with Nottingham Forest expired this past summer.
