A few days ago it was ago it was revealed that Lampard actually had never signed a deal with New York City.

When it was officially revealed to the public that Lampard never penned a contract with the MLS team this originated a string of accusations towards the commissioner of the MLS, Don Garber for his lack of leadership and transparency due to the way that he failed appropriately to control this situation.
