Footballer Frank Lampard goes for a last-minute dash around London as he prepares for his big relocation to New York City
On July 1, footballer Frank Lampard will officially take on duties as a player for New York City FC as he relocates to the US following a glittering career most notably spent at Chelsea.
And in the final few weeks leading up to his anticipated tenure, the 36-year-old midfielder has been tying up some loose ends in his old stomping ground of London.
The Essex native was spotted making his way to a business meeting at an upscale restaurant in the English capital on Friday afternoon.

Emerging from his luxury SUV with notebooks in hand, the star chatted on his phone as he made his way into the eatery wearing a navy blazer over a purple shirt with jeans.
Earlier in the day, Frank - who played the recently concluded season for Manchester City - made an appearance on ITV's Loose Women, where he spoke about his big move.
He also revealed that his fiancée, Christine Bleakley, is set to travel back and forth in order to honour her work commitments in the UK.

'Christine has got bits on. She'll be backwards and forwards probably more than me. We are a couple that like to be together.
'We're not good at long distance for too long so we'll make it work. I'm actually back for two months over Christmas. We're just going to try and make it work and have fun along the way.'
Despite Frank's move to the states, their plans to wed seem to be full steam ahead.

We are very ready [to get married],' he said. 'We are going to do a small and pretty intimate [wedding], not a surprise thing, we like our privacy and keeping it to ourselves.'
Speaking of why the couple, who met in 2009, have yet to make it down the aisle, despite being engaged for four years, he added: 'We're actually having a great time, that's the thing.
'When we got engaged, we said we want to enjoy the fun time and we're both very busy. Like this morning, she's just finished now and I'm here and we'll meet up after.'
Making moves: Frank is set to relocate to the US, where he will play for New York City FC from this summer
