Frank Lampard isn't the only Manchester City player heading to New York City FC this summer.

The New York Daily News is reporting Man City reserves defender Shay Facey will be joining NYCFC on a six-month loan deal.

The 20-year-old centre-back has been training with the MLS franchise as a trialist since January, according to the report, and has earned the right to extend his stay in the states.

"First and foremost, I like Shay's spirit, his mentality, he's a real competitor," NYCFC coach Jason Kreis told the paper after a recent scrimmage. "I think he's very hungry to be a part of what's going on here. I think he's very hungry to move his professional career forward."

Although he's failed so far to crack into Manchester City's senior squad, Facey has been capped 18 times for England's youth teams.
