New York City FC announced on
Monday that it has added Italian maestro Andrea Pirlo arrived from
Juventus to a roster that already includes fellow World Cup winner David Villa,
U.S. national team regular Mix Diskerud and English icon Frank Lampard (who,
like Pirlo, will debut this month).
English duo Lampard and Gerrard are earning in the region of $6m
(£3.9m) following their moves from the Premier League this summer, as is Villa
who joined New York City earlier this year.
It means that just
four months into its debut season, NYCFC likely boasts the most expensive squad
in the league's 20-year history.
According to ESPN the Italian international will
make a whopping $8million (£5.175m) during his time in America – more than
Frank Lampard, Steven Gerrard and David Villa.
