Talks have already taken place with Lingard’s advisers and he has been offered a 4½-year deal significantly in excess of the £100,000-a-week salary of the club’s present top earner, Miguel Almirón.

this part is interesting because officially you are not allowed to contact players on expiring contracts before January 1. Now I'm not naive, I know this stuff happens all time ... but I must say I am surprised that teams don't even try to hide it anymore.
EDIT: for summer transfers that is. If they want him in January, United better negotiate a decent fee.
