Frank Lampard scored the only goal between Manchester City and Leicester City in Saturday’s Premier League match, to equal Thierry Henry’s all-time Barclays Premier League total of 175 goals.
The former England international has played for West Ham, Chelsea and City in his 19-year career and is also three goals away from Wayne Rooney’s total of 178.
City manager Manuel Pellegrini, has hinted that he is ready to keep the 36-year-old midfielder beyond his initial loan spell.
Lampard’s first-half strike means that City remain three points behind his former club, Chelsea.
