New York City midfielder Frank Lampard is in talks with
Manchester City over a six-month loan deal, according to Sky sources.
The former Chelsea player who was also the club's record
goal scorer joined New York City, owned by Manchester City and baseball giants
New York Yankees, on the 24th of July.
Lampard scored 211 goals in 649 matches for Chelsea,
becoming the club's record goal scorer but was released by Chelsea at the end
of the season.
It was thought Lampard, 36, had agreed an autumn switch to
join Manchester City's sister side Melbourne City where he would play alongside
New York City teammate David Villa.
But the news of his decision to join Manuel Pellegrini's
side will no doubt cause huge disappointment for Australian football fans.
Lampard, who signed a two-year deal with New York City, is
still considering his England future and possibly a switch to Manchester United
on loan.
