Jesse Lingard's brother blasts Man United after Newcastle loan demands

Jesse Lingard's brother has blasted Manchester United for apparently preventing the midfielder's move to Newcastle with huge loan demands. 

The 29-year-old outcast has barely played for the Red Devils this season, with several Premier League sides interested in signing him before the January transfer window closes on Monday.

But United have reportedly set eye-wateringly high demands for a temporary switch to the Magpies, leading Lingard's brother Louie Scott to compare his sibling's situation at Old Trafford to that of a prisoner. 

Scott posted on his Instagram account a year to the day after Lingard joined West Ham on loan, with a picture of the United academy product celebrating a goal for the Hammers.
