Frank Lampard could extend his stay with Manchester City if New York City have a January training camp in Manchester at their new City Football Academy.
Lampard has proven to be a valuable player for City and was voted player of the month in September.
The option of NYC doing so is currently only a possibility but is being explored, with the MLS club also potentially playing some friendlies in the north-west area at the same time.
The MLS season does not start until March, with Lampard currently due to return to NYC towards the end of January.
