Ex-Man Utd star Jesse Lingard branded a 'complete moron' as 'cringe' dancing golfer celebration with FC Seoul fans goes viral

A clip of ex-England international Lingard orchestrating supporters at the end of a positive display from FC Seoul has been posted on social media. It sees the former Manchester United star revving up those in the stands with a performance that sees him take centre stage.

As Lingard’s club colleagues watch on behind him, the 31-year-old playmaker raises the volume of the crowed before then quietening them down. He then proceeds to mimic knocking a golf ball into the group of fans, which completes the routine and allows proper celebrations to begin.

Lingard’s antics in South Korea have not been well received by everybody, with @M05es telling the charismatic midfielder that he is a “complete moron”. @LeahRayAFC adds that the elaborate celebration is “so cringe”, while @No1_REVENANT suggests that Lingard has “finally found his level”. Another critic, @abdul_tobiloba2, says: “Dancing. That's all he wanted to do. Just needed an excuse to wear shorts.”

While Lingard’s behaviour may not be to everybody’s taste, he is playing with a smile on his face again in the Far East. End product has returned to his game, as goals and assists flow once more, and he is tied to a two-year contract with Seoul that includes the option for a further 12-month extension.
