Manchester United winger Jesse Lingard has revealed that he wants to remain with the team next season and not leave on loan.
Lingard has been linked with a move to Newcastle United to work with Steve McClaren, who he played under at Derby County last season.
However, the 22-year-old has no intention of leaving so easily and is keen to speak with manager Louis van Gaal.
He told reporters: "I'm looking to stay at Man United and get some games under my belt there. I'll see what the boss says when I get back. I've always wanted to play for Man United and that's still my ambition.
"I was unlucky to get injured at the start of last season, and I'll never know where I would be now if I hadn't got that injury. I kept in contact with Louis van Gaal last season and spoke to Gareth Southgate a lot. He was guiding me and giving me confidence."
Lingard scored two goals in 16 appearances last season.
