London: Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger on Sunday queried the arrangement that has allowed former Chelsea midfielder Frank Lampard to join Manchester City on loan from their sister club New York City.

 

As well as Lampard's move to the Etihad Stadium, New York have also loaned Spanish striker David Villa to Melbourne City. All three clubs are owned by the City Football Group, a holding company of City's owners, the Abu Dhabi United Group. Wenger, whose side face City in next weekend's Community Shield, suggested that the partnerships could give the Premier League champions an unfair advantage.
