Italian legend Pirlo linked with New York City

Juventus midfielder Andrea Pirlo is reported to have accepted an offer to join Frank Lampard at New York City FC. Sources suggest the 36-year-old would only consider leaving the Serie A giants if they were successful in Saturday's Champions League final against Barcelona.

According to Spanish newspaper AS, however, Pirlo has already accepted a proposal from New York City having spoken to the club's chief executive, Ferran Soriano.
