#3 Lampard thanks Leicester City
Derby County manager Frank Lampard has expressed his gratitude towards former Premier League champions Leicester City for their supportive nature during the negotiation for Andy King.
King joined the Championship side on loan in the winter market and it has been reported that the Foxes are still paying a part of his salary. And Lampard’s words might suggest that it was indeed the case.
He stated that getting a deal done for King would have been very hard if it weren’t for the assistance of the King Power Stadium outfit.
"It was a difficult one for us because it was a deal that would have been difficult for us to do,” Lampard said.
"Leicester helped us, really, in that way, so we managed to get him in and he's a great addition for us in terms of numbers in midfield."
