After starring on loan at West Ham last season, the ex-England international is in great demand this summer.
He understands that a successful move away could result in him representing England at the World Cup.
The Englishman, who has watched countrymen Tammy Abraham, Fikayo Tomori, and Chris Smalling prosper on the continent, is considering a lucrative new start in Italy.
According to the Mirror, Roma is one of the clubs interested in signing Lingard, and a reunion with ex-boss Jose Mourinho is on the cards.
However, they are up against Juventus and AC Milan, two underperforming Italian heavyweights who are rumored to be interested in signing the attacking midfielder.
