Chelsea legend Frank Lampard is being linked with a shock move to Manchester City. The England midfielder signed for City's sister outfit New York City FC this summer, ending 13 trophy-laden years at Chelsea.
With the Major League Soccer season not starting until the spring, there was speculation that Lampard would head to Melbourne City, the third club owned by the City Football Group, on a short-term deal.
But reports emerged on Friday night that the 36-year-old was set to move to the Etihad on a six-month deal to help Manuel Pellegrini's men in the defence of their Barclays Premier League title.
