Jesse Lingard (33), a former Manchester United striker and current FC Seoul star, has stopped his personal fashion friends.
British daily The Sun reported that Lingard recently liquidated 'JLingz Ltd', a brand company founded in 2018 while playing for Manchester United.
According to the latest data, 'JLingz' was owed 276,883 pounds (about KRW 506.4 million).
'JLingz' has applied for patents including clothing, shoes, hats, and JL goal celebrations ahead of the 2018 World Cup in Russia.

Lingard was accused of focusing on business instead of football in its first year of the brand's launch.
Manchester United legend Gary Neville said in Manchester United's 1-3 defeat to Liverpool that `we should not be launching a clothing brand ahead of Liverpool's biggest away game of the season.'
Lingard, who lost his place at Manchester United, joined Nottingham Forest on a free contract in 2022.
Lingard, who was released after the 2022-2023 season, has been without his team for more than half a year and made a surprise advance to the K-League by joining Seoul in February last year.

Lingard, who underwent knee surgery at the beginning of the season, has established himself as the core of the team led by head coach Kim Ki-dong since May, leading the team to advance to the top split for the first time in five years with a unique understanding of space and natural soccer sense. Seoul ranked fourth in the final ranking.
Lingard, who has six goals and three assists in 26 games, is preparing for his second season in Seoul.
Meanwhile, Lingard ranked first overall with an annual salary of 1.82 billion won in the 2024 K-League annual salary unveiled by the Korea Professional Football Federation on December 30 last year.
Seoul, which enjoyed the Lingard effect, earned the highest entry income of 7,662,637,190 won in the K-League in 2024.
