Manuel Pellegrini has set his sights on keeping Frank Lampard at Manchester City beyond his current loan spell with the Premier League champion.
Pellegrini's side beat last-place Leicester 1-0 on Saturday, thanks to Lampard's 175th Premier League goal five minutes before halftime at King Power Stadium.
The former Chelsea midfielder has now scored six goals on loan from Major League Soccer's New York City, and Pellegrini would dearly love to keep the 36-year-old at Eastlands for a larger portion of the season.
