Jesse Lingard has spent the summer training with West Ham but has yet to receive a contract offer.
The former Manchester United academy graduate enjoyed a successful six-month loan spell with the Hammers two years ago, however, after opting to join Nottingham Forest last summer, Lingard, 30, has so far failed to make a return to London.
After being released by Forest at the end of last season, that could be set to change though.

On the lookout for a new permanent club, the English midfielder, who has been training with the Hammers, is once again being linked with rejoining the club, and according to a recent report from Football Insider, the Hammers are considering offer the 30-year-old a short-term deal.
David Moyes’ side isn’t the only club interested in Lingard though. It has been noted that Turkish rivals Galatasaray and Fenerbache are both interested in signing the ex-Red Devils on a free transfer.
Only time will tell which club ends up winning the race for the 2016 FA Cup winner, but Hammers fans will feel they’re well-placed to secure the midfielder’s signature, especially if his preference is to remain in the Premier League.
What is all this bullshit about Lingard, he didn’t want to join westham so move on
