The 36-year-old left Chelsea at the end of last season after 13 seasons and a club record 211 goals.

The midfielder becomes New York City FC's fourth player and second major summer signing following the arrival of David Villa from Athletico Madrid. Lampard who has signed a two-year deal with his new club, made 649 appearances for Chelsea since signing from West Ham in 2001. He has played 106 times for England, scoring 29 goals.

He signed a one-year contract extension with the Blues in May 2013 after mulling over a move to Los Angeles Galaxy, who he will now play in opposition from next spring.
