Why the Frank Lampard To Orlando City Rumor Makes No Sense

The MLS off-season is here (for all but four teams, at least), and with that comes the silly season of transfer rumors that will flood your timeline over the next few months. Just this past week, we saw our first flimsy rumor connect itself with Orlando City with The Daily Express in England reporting that the Lions are one of five teams “keen” on signing now former New York City FC midfielder Frank Lampard.

NYCFC announced this past week that the Chelsea legend would be leaving the club after the season. Lampard, who was the first player signed by the City Football Group-owned club in 2014, only played in 24 games for the Blues over the course of two seasons, but managed to find the net 12 times in 2016.
