Newcastle have been warned not to sign Manchester United man Jesse Lingard by one of their former players.
The Manchester Evening News understands that United's chiefs are waiting for the Magpies to make a new offer after talks between the two clubs failed to reach an agreement.
It is believed that Lingard is keen to join the Magpies until the end of the season but the ball is now left firmly in the court of the relegation battlers.
Those inside Lingard's camp are reported to be 'incensed' by United's handling of the situation and the 29-year-old is now weighing up a move abroad at the end of the season when his contract runs out.
But Eddie Howe has been warned not to make an improved offer for the former West Ham loanee.
Speaking to Boyle Sports, ex-Newcastle full-back Jose Enrique said: "Jesse Lingard is a very good player when he’s on form.
"Obviously Eddie knows better, but long term I don’t know if he’s the right player.
"Off the field, he’s not my kind of player if I was a manager.
"But if he can help them now he would definitely be a good signing.”
Lingard has made just 14 appearances in all competitions this season for United, scoring two goals and grabbing one assist.
