The former England attacker, who lit up the scene with several clubs in the Premier League, including West Ham United, where he recorded a staggering 13 goal involvements in his 16 appearances according to data courtesy of Fotmob, has been named captain of his South Korean team by the coach of the club.

However, while Lingard has yet to make a significant impact with his goal-scoring ability for his new club, he has certainly lit up social media with a video of him unloading goods from a truck.

Lingard offloads good from a truck

In footage shared on social media by Football Clowns, the 31-year-old was seen with several individuals, believed to be his teammates, unloading cartons from a parked truck while fluently conversing in Korean.

The video, captioned "Get ready to learn Korean! Is this what they got my boy doing?" has sparked a flurry of reactions online, with many quickly commenting on the viral clip.

@el_gatobravo remarked:

“Man showing his mature side. Respect, and love that he’s learning the language.”

@daily_green_smoker appreciated the attacker’s efforts with:

“Bros doing side quests 👏🔥”

@nonto_geza, seemingly in disbelief, posted:

“Bro works at SHEIN now 😭😭😭”

@johnmclum added:

“His falloff should be studied; bro was a baller.”

Erik ten Hag blamed for pre-season loss

In another report, Legit.ng disclosed that Manchester United's 2024/25 season began on a disappointing note with a defeat to Rosenborg, and manager Erik ten Hag has been bashed by the club’s fans for the defeat.

The Dutch manager, who featured five first-team regulars from last season, lost by a last-minute goal by Noah Holm.

Though it was only a friendly match, the result drew significant criticism from both Ten Hag and the fans, particularly since the Premier League team conceded more than 20 shots during the game.
