The former Manchester United midfielder has struggled to adapt to his surroundings in Korea, with an update on Tuesday revealing a fresh hurdle to overcome. Lingard shared videos of him undergoing electrotherapy as he recovers from a knee issue sustained late last month. He hasn't played for FC Seoul since March 16 as a result of said injury.

WHAT HAPPENED?

The 31-year-old shared a trio of snaps on his <a href="https://www.instagram.com/stories/jesselingard/3337792402057522589/?hl=en" target="_blank">Instagram</a> story promising that the problem was only a "minor setback" and that he was showing signs of "progression".<picture><source srcset="https://assets.goal.com/images/v3/blt32bb2b2630096953/GOAL_-_Multiple_Images_-_3_Split_-_Facebook.jpg?format=webp" type="image/webp"><source srcset="https://assets.goal.com/images/v3/blt32bb2b2630096953/GOAL_-_Multiple_Images_-_3_Split_-_Facebook.jpg?format=jpg" type="image/jpeg"><img src="https://assets.goal.com/images/v3/blt32bb2b2630096953/GOAL_-_Multiple_Images_-_3_Split_-_Facebook.jpg?format=jpg" alt="Jesse Lingard electrotherapy" data-source="IG: jesselingard" data-copyright="IG: jesselingard" perform:prop="uuid:blt32bb2b2630096953;width:1920;height:1080"></picture>

WHAT LINGARD POSTED

Despite the risk of another injury-ravaged campaign, it isn't just fitness problems that have hampered Lingard's start to life in Korea. FC Seoul boss Kim Gi-dong has repeatedly <a href="https://www.goal.com/en-gb/lists/didn-t-work-hard-jesse-lingard-slammed-fc-seoul-boss-kim-gi-dong-ex-man-utd-man-warned-some-way-off-breaking-into-starting-xi/blt0b7839977ee83adf" target="_blank">slammed the midfielder's work ethic,</a> with his most recent comments suggesting <a href="https://www.goal.com/en-gb/lists/jesse-lingard-not-football-player-brutal-comments-fc-seoul-boss-man-utd-loanee-exile-nightmare-korea/bltc287c5b67a7a96dc" target="_blank">Lingard "isn't a footballer" </a>due to his lack of effort, even threatening his first-team exile as a result. Of the games he has played in, the Englishman has made more headlines <a href="https://www.goal.com/en-gb/lists/video-jesse-lingard-korea-ex-man-utd-flop-booked-within-15-minutes-of-fc-seoul-debut/blt2c30b9a316cf2957" target="_blank">for his reckless challenges</a> than meaningful contributions. He's picked up two yellow cards in three games for FC Seoul but is yet to register a goal or assist.

THE BIGGER PICTURE

Despite his disappointing start, Lingard has already become a sensation in Korea. Fans reportedly <a href="https://www.goal.com/en-gb/lists/jesse-lingard-sensation-south-korea-fans-queue-four-hours-buy-shirt-tickets-ex-man-utd-debut-sell-out-two-minutes-thirty-seconds/blt672a355d2d9a25f8" target="_blank">queued up for four hours to buy his FC Seoul shirt</a>, with tickets to his debut selling out in under three minutes.

DID YOU KNOW?

There is no known timeframe for Lingard's return from injury, but his comments regarding a "minor setback" suggest he shouldn't be out for too long. He will, however, miss FC Seoul's next match, which comes later on Tuesday against second-placed Gimcheon Sangmu.
