Jesse Lingard joins Derby County on loan

Manchester United midfielder Jesse Lingard has completed a loan move to Derby County for the remainder of the season.

It has also been confirmed that the 22-year-old has signed a new three-year contract with the Red Devils this evening.

"Jesse Lingard is an exciting talent and someone that we are looking forward to working with," Steve McClaren told Derby's official website.

"He strengthens the attacking options that we can call upon and given we've lost Jordon Ibe and Johnny Russell in the last few weeks it was important to strengthen in that particular area of the side."

England Under-21 international Lingard enjoyed loan spells at Birmingham City and Brighton & Hove Albion last season.
