Former Manchester United midfielder Jesse Lingard admits he's open to a move to Saudi Arabia.

Lingard becomes a free agent this week as his Nottingham Forest deal runs down.

He told Sky Sports, "I've never ruled any team out, any club out, so for me it's picking the right team. It's got to be right for me. I just want to play football at the end of the day.

"The project has got to be well-suited for me. The team's got to be good and in the right direction. Literally, it's just regular game time. I'm still hungry, I'm working hard and I'm going to be ready when called upon.

"Saudi Arabia are doing big things. In the next year or so, the next couple of years, it will be one of the hot spots to go to. I'm not really surprised the big names are moving out there. So it's something I'm going to consider as well."
