Frank
Lampard has told Sky Sports News he will confirm his next footballing
destination 'very shortly'.
The veteran midfielder ended his 13-year association with Chelsea last
month, having scored 211 goals, making him the club's all-time record
goalscorer.
He has been heavily linked with a move to the new MLS franchise New York
City - who have recently signed David Villa - and Lampard said he will
reveal his decision imminently.
"At the moment I have got a few options," he told Sky Sports News. "There is
no exclusive but I will be making a decision very shortly."
Lampard, 36, won his 106th international cap against Costa Rica in England's
final group game at the World Cup and hinted that he is ready to call time
on the national team.
"Of course I would like to play for England again," he said. "But maybe you
cannot play for ever so again I've switched off for the moment. I have not
made that decision either. I'm very aware that my England career cannot go
on for ever and I have enjoyed every minute so we will see.
"It will be a difficult decision but at the end of the day I would not ever
have dreamed of having such an England career so I can only be happy with
whatever decision I make."
Lampard won three Premier League titles, the Champions League, the Europa
League, four FA Cups and two League Cups during his time at Stamford Bridge.
