Lampard to Move to MLS Next Week
By Opeyemi Oladunjoye
Chelsea player, Frank Lampard is set to complete his move to Major League Soccer newcomers, New York City next week.
The 36-year-old was released by Chelsea at the end of last season. He is currently on a short holiday after playing for England at the World Cup in Brazil.
After a trophy-laden 13 years with chelsea, the midfielder will join the Manchester City-owned franchise for their opening MLS season in 2015.
It has yet to be decided whether Lampard will, like David Villa, join NYC’s sister club in Melbourne for a short stint in order to keep his fitness levels up. Lampard may opt to train in the UK instead.
