Jesse Lingard appears not to miss football as he is enjoying his life as a free agent after not finding a new club since leaving Nottingham Forest last summer.

Lingard came through Manchester United's academy and spent 11 years with the first team before leaving permanently in 2020 at the expiration of his contract.

He had a successful loan spell at West Ham in 2021, and expectations were that he would join the club after leaving his boyhood club, but he moved to the City Ground instead, where he spent a year.

Since the move to Al-Ettifaq broke down, only a little has been heard about the England international, with the transfer window in Europe set to open in two weeks.

As seen in a video on his TikTok page, the 31-year-old was seen dancing to the viral song Ojapiano by Nigerian artiste Kcee, showing his mum the dance steps to the music.

Lingard regularly updates fans about his life on the platform, mainly seen spending time with his daughter, whom he gave birth to through former girlfriend Rebecca Halliday.

Nigerian music, popularly referred to as Afrobeat, is a global phenomenon that rings around sports clubs worldwide.

Sports Brief reported that Chelsea unveiled Moises Caicedo with a Nigerian song from Pheelz and BNXN titled Finesse, and for those who understand, it passed a message.

The song preaches going all out for what you want, even if it means going broke later, and that is what the Blues did. It also connotes not falling in love with who doesn't want you, in the case of Liverpool agreeing on a fee with Brighton despite Caicedo preferring Chelsea.
